Local News

We are teaming up with SANS from 5pm to 9pm on the 11th of February 2013 to deliver two great speakers in a new venue, the National Library Conference Room. Obviously this meeting WON'T be in our regular venue, so please note the event details in our calendar below.

Regular OWASP meetings

The meetings of the Canberra OWASP Chapter will be held every three months on the first Wednesday of the month, but if we can keep the speakers rolling every month, then we'll make it once a month. The meeting venue and format will stay much the same with the venue kindly provided by the Centre for Internet Safety (CIS) and the pizza and beer sponsored by IBM.

Date: See table below

Time: 6:00pm to 9:00pm

Place: CIS Offices, 170 Haydon drive, Bruce, ACT [1]

Proceedings:

1) News, rumour and innuendo in AppSec by chapter leader (slide deck)
