− | * This is a rough schedule, but we will attempt to stick to it as close as possible. If presentations are to be over an hour appropriate announcements will be made ahead of time for scheduling. We understand that everyone can't be out of the office for several hours, and want to pack as much value and content into the alloted time as possible. The goal is for each atendee to walk away with usable information and value. If we are not doing that, thencontact us and let us know how to improve our meeting process.

− | ''Potential Training/ 1-day Application Security Conference Idea''
| |
− |
| |
− | We have discussed having a one day conference focused on Application Security. Tracks would be based on OWASP content, projects, methods, etc and how to put it all together to create and maintain an effective application security program.
| |
− |
| |
− |
| |
− | Tracks/Session may be split based on technical and management focused material. This may be held Q4 2010 depending on community feedback, planning and budget. We can also start on a smaller scale to define a workable model before investing in a much larger event.

− | Attendees would be charged an affordable fee of $100-$250 with proceeds from the conference going directly into the Chapters OWASP PayPal fund. Vendor space would be available to help support the event as well.

− | OWASP provides documentation, tools, methodologies, standards, articles, and message forums (“OWASP Materials”) as a service to Internet users worldwide to help users and developers understand more about application security. OWASP makes these materials available to end users to help them acquire, build, test, and operate secure software. In addition to the benefits you receive as described above, your membership helps to support the growth of OWASP and the development of new and improved OWASP Materials. Because we are an open, non-commercial entity, we can take on projects that commercial entities driven by profit motives could not. Everyone benefits from these projects. Your support will help OWASP continue to find and fight the causes of insecure software.
