Next Meeting
October 14th 2009
Separate meetings will be held for OWASP OC and OWASP@UCI (student group).
When: Wednesday 10/14 7:30PM Where: Steelhead Brewery Topics: News, Ideas, Chit-chat
This is a restaurant/bar with plenty of seating, but room for a projector is out of the question so this would be an informal round table discussion.
I have a presentation I'm working on regarding WAFs and Vulnerability Assessment Tools. If it pleases the group, I'd love to go over the presentation and discuss everyone's experiences. Also, it's a great way to get feedback :)
Neil
I'm open to suggestions of any kind: location, time, topics, etc
