Tutorial Days - May 19-20

OWASP arranged for several Application Security tutorials on May 19th-20th, the days prior to the conference.

T1. Building and Testing Secure Web Applications
Most developers, IT professionals, and auditors learn what they know about application security on the job, usually by making mistakes. Application security is just not a part of many computer science curricula today and most organizations have not focused on instituting a culture that includes application security as a core part of their IT security efforts. This powerful two day course focuses on the most common web application security problems, including the OWASP Top Ten. The course will introduce and demonstrate hacking techniques, illustrating how application vulnerabilities can be exploited so students really understand how to avoid introducing such vulnerabilities into their code.

Trainer: Jason Li, Aspect Security - Read more here!

T2. Leading the Development of Secure Applications
In this one-day management session you’ll get the answers to the ten key questions that most CIOs and development managers face when trying to improve security in the development process. The course provides proven techniques and valuable lessons learned that can be applied to projects at any phase of their application’s lifecycle.

Trainer: Arshan Dabirsiaghi, Aspect Security - Read more here!

T3. Building Secure Rich Internet Applications
Rich Internet applications using technologies like Ajax, Flash, ActiveX, and Java Applets require special attention to secure. This one day training addresses the special issues that arise in this type of application development.

Trainer: Arshan Dabirsiaghi, Aspect Security - Read more here!

T4. Building Secure Web Services
The movement towards Web Services and Service Oriented architecture (SOA) paradigms requires new security paradigms to deal with new risks posed by these architectures. This session takes a pragmatic approach towards identifying Web Services security risks and selecting and applying countermeasures to the application, code, web servers, databases, application, and identity servers and related software. Many enterprises are currently developing new Web Services and/or adding and acquiring Web Services functionality into existing applications -- now is the time to build security into the system!

Trainer: Dave Wichers, Aspect Security - Read more here!

T5. Open Source ModSecurity Training
ModSecurity is currently the most widely deployed web application firewall (WAF) product. This two-day class is for those people who want to learn how to build, deploy, and use ModSecurity in the most effective manner. The course will cover the open source ModSecurity Console, which helps manage alerts on suspicious web activity targeting your web servers. The course also provides an in-depth look at the extremely powerful ModSecurity Rules Language.

Trainer: Ryan Barnett, Breach - Read more here!

More information about the tutorials are online.

Venue: Monasterium PoortAckere, Oude Houtlei 56, 9000 Gent http://www.monasterium.be/

Cocktail Party - May 20, sponsored by Breach Security

In what is also becoming a tradition, there will be a cocktail party the night before the conference begins, sponsored by Breach Security. The free and open for all conference attendees event will be held at the Vintage Wine Bar at 6:30pm. We would appreciate it if you let us know if you are coming so we can be ready, please mail [email protected] to confirm.

Evening Social Event - May 21

At every conference we have an evening social event the first night. This allows participants to have some unstructured time to mingle with the other attendees. They are always fun and typically attract about half the conference attendees. This year's event will be a Flemish buffet with special Belgian beers at the Monasterium (near the conference location).

Registration is available via the OWASP Conference Cvent site at: Cvent link

OWASP Band - May 21, sponsored by Breach Security

If that is not enough: tune in for the OWASP Band! Check out the vibes of last year online. After the OWASP Dinner you can play, dance or listen to the greatest open-source band: THE OWASP Band. You play an instrument; the neighbours don't complain on your singing talents: contact dinis.cruz <at> owasp.org!

Venue: The White Cat Time: 23h

Accommodations

  • OWASP arranged for a room block of 20 Executive Deluxe rooms at the NH Gent Belfort at a rate of €199 per night. This room block is being held through April 11!! After that date, there is no guarantee that rooms at this rate will be available at the NH Gent Belfort.
  • OWASP attendees have an option for 20 rooms at € 122 and 10 rooms at € 132 per night at the Hotel Monasterium PoortAckere up until April 30. Use OWASP as reference when booking your room. Please note that there are no more rooms for the night of May 22.
  • OWASP arranged for a room block of 25 rooms at the IBIS hotels. You can already contact them on Hotel Ibis Gent Centrum Opera (€ 89 per night - 10 rooms) and Hotel Ibis Gent Centrum Kathedraal (€ 99 per night - 15 rooms of which 3 still available for the 22nd) - reservations through e-mail: H0961-RE at accor.com or fax: 0032/9 233 10 00 (before April 19 - reference OWASP).

It is difficult getting rooms at reduced prices, as there is a medical congress around the same time in Ghent. You will find it difficult to get a room for the night of May 22. We recommend you then book a room for one night near the airport of Brussels.

The following is a list of nearby accommodations that may have availability:
