Local News
In July's OWASP Brisbane Chapter meeting, Miguel Madero will present a session titled "Security in Silverlight".
Miguel will show in several demos different Application Security concerns specific to Silverlight Applications commonly overlooked. He will teach us how to avoid being hacked and protect our data with some basic tips. These are some of the topics covered in this lightning talk:
- Common Hacking Techniques
- Security as an Aspect
- End to end data protection
- UI Level Security
- Authentication Mechanisms
- Authorization and User Context
- Service Level Security
Miguel has been programming for fun for the last 15 years when he realized that it was better to play with QBasic and Pascal than Prince of Persia. He found out that he could actually get some money out of this hobby so he started a couple of web companies 5 years later and then a Development Shop before moving to Australia to work for Readify where he’s now having fun coding some of the coolest projects in Australia. He discovered Silverlight two years ago and it’s still keeping him busy and entertained.
