Welcome

Welcome to SnowFROC 2012, the fourth Front Range OWASP Application Security Conference!

After successful FROC's in June of 2008, March of 2009, and 2010 we are back in Denver, Colorado USA on Thursday the 22nd of March!

This year we again present a full day, multi-track event, which will provide valuable information for managers and executives as well as developers and engineers. ALSO, on Friday March 23rd several instructors from OWASP will be conducting day-long deep-dives!

In 2010, we attracted a packed venue with our great AppSec speakers, and we hope to achieve the same again in 2012.
