How to Start a Successful Cyber Security Business: 12 May, 2015

Please join us May 12, 2015 from 4-5 pm in Discovery Hall, room 162. OWASP will be hosting Rick Kam, founder and president of ID Experts. He will be visiting our campus to present his entrepreneurship experience in cyber security. He will talk about what happens when an entity experiences a cyber attack and breaches regulated data. He will also discuss how cyber risks are creating many new career opportunities in cyber security, privacy, and compliance.

Rick Kam brings 28 years of business experience including a long management career with IBM Corporation. Under his leadership, ID Experts has grown to become a leading provider of data breach protection, response, and identity theft protection services. Rick has also chaired the Public Health Information (PHI) Project, a working group made up of members from the ANSI IDSP that focus on fraud and risk mitigation associated with the Financial Services Roundatable, BITS, and Internet Security Alliance. The working group developed an industry leading white paper: “The Financial Impact of Breached Protected Health Information – A Business Case for Enhanced PHI Security.”

This event is an excellent opportunity to learn about cyber security entrepreneurship and the current cyber security landscape. Rick will also be available to answer questions at the end. This event is open to everyone. We hope to see you there!

Presentation Slides: File:Security testing real world.pptx

Links to the Demo Vulnerabilities Investigated in the Lab:

Bonus: the first twenty attendees are entered in a free raffle for OWASP swag!!!

In this hands-on lab we will go over tools and techniques for application security testing that will help testers and developers find issues and exploit them. You will be guided through the lab using a pre-configured workstation as an "attacker" and targeting a vulnerable website (e.g. Wordpress with known vulnerable plugins). We will also discuss techniques to improve your bug hunting besides the usual "vulnerable web app" approach.

Please join us in the Network Security Lab, UW1-321, on April 10th from 4pm to 5:30pm. Presented by OWASP and the Gray Hats team.

Ever wondered if your website was secure? Want to know how to test it? Join us as David L. Morse presents an introduction to stress-testing your website!

  • We'll play with hacking tools specifically designed to identify the most commonly attacked vulnerabilities - using the results to "harden" our website.
  • We'll have a brief overview and then hands-on excercises. No experience needed!
  • We'll meet on campus in building UW1, Room 321 - the network security lab.
