Q. What is the Portal?

A. The Portal's primary purpose is to provide a simplified and consolidated platform for membership and event registration. There is additional functionality available that we will be adding very soon. This includes consolidated resources, a fundraising and donation platform, and nominations for 2014 WASPY awards - just to name a few.

Q. What is the "OWASP Community?"

A. The OWASP Community is a built in social media platform. OWASP is testing the functionality and usefulness of this platform. In the community, you can connect with other OWASPers, participate discussions in areas of interest to you, participate in polls, and post ideas to make YOUR organization better.

Q. Is the OWASP Community closed? I have to login.

A. The OWASP Community is open to everyone. There is a requirement that you be logged in to access the community, but all groups and discussions are open.

Q. How do I get my login information?

A. All current paid members were automatically activated. Login information was sent out on Tuesday, April 8. Your Username would, in most cases, be your email address, and a special link was included that would take you to the page where you can set your password. To return to the portal, you would go to the standard login page: http://sl.owasp.org/returninguser
