It's been over 10 years since the first automated web scanning products were introduced so why are so many of the dynamic or black box testing tools still challenging to use and often ineffective? With the average organization having dozens or in some cases hundreds of web applications, testing them all manually is an expensive and time consuming task. As a result organizations have turned to automated solutions to assess their online risks, but are automated dynamic scanning solutions really effective or are they only offering us a false sense of security?

This talk covers the history of web application scanning, how web applications and therefore the methods of assessing web application risk have and must change and how cloud computing is enabling new approaches to managing and assessing risk that bring scalability and cost inline with business expectations.

Charter

The Sacramento OWASP Chapter promotes the principles of OWASP in our local community with an emphasis on education, local networking opportunities, and fun. Meetings are typically on the last Thursday evening of the month.

MEETING: June 24, 2010, 6-8 pm: SQL Injection Lab

Prerequisites

• A basic understanding of Relational Databases

• Installed copy of Virtual Box, running Maven’s Web Security Dojo

SQL Injection can be a serious vulnerability that is actively being exploited "in the wild." This lab will help the attendee understand SQL Injection through live demonstrations and hands-on activities. We will be splitting into groups of 3-4 to perform the lab exercises. Once the lab activities have ended, we will look at methods for limiting and preventing SQL injection.

Please come to the lab prepared with a laptop that contains an installed copy of Virtual Box, running Maven’s Web Security Dojo. The software will provide us with a virtual training environment.
