Until our next meeting, spread the word on OWASP and get involved. Get online on our own IRC channel (#owasp-atlanta on EfNet) and stay in touch with leaders and other members for a free for all discussion on mostly security related topics, but OT topics have been known to be introduced. Last, if you have a job and your employer is looking to be a financial contributor to an organization that can benefit the greater Atlanta security community as well as their own security efforts, please let us know. <paypal>Atlanta Georgia</paypal>
Call for Case Studies
As many of you know, we are steering OWASP-Atlanta to crank out some meaningful case studies with metrics. As part of the planning that goes into this, we have spoken to a few organizations that have expressed interest in gaining our expertise on an array of security topics that revolve around web application security. On our part, we need to formalize our A-Team in order to see who would be available for which types of case-study genres. If you are interested in partaking on this team, please let me know. You can reach me at tonyuv [at] versprite [dot] com.
