Conference Overview

Welcome to the OWASP 2009 Conference based in Australia. The conference this year follows on from an incredibly successful conference in 2008.

In 2009, we will be returning to the same venue, but will be including many more training sessions, interesting speakers both local and international, as well as providing multiple language support for attendees from Asian countries. The OWASP 2009 AU conference has attracted attention from all around the world, and this year we will feature some of the most well known industry speakers and organizations to participate in the conference. No matter where you are in the world, this is the conference on security you must attend for the beginning of 2009.
