The next OWASP Europe conference will be held in Milan, Italy May 15th-17th 2007.


Conference Location

This year's OWASP AppSec conference in Europe will be held at the Marriott in Milan, Italy from May 15th-17th. More information about this hotel can be found at: http://marriott.com/hotels/travel/milit-milan-marriott-hotel/

Via Washington, 66

Milan, 20146 Italy

Phone: 39 02 48521

Training Day: May 15th

Main Conference: May 16th-17th

Agenda and Presentations - May 16th-17th

The agenda will follow the (current) standard OWASP conference format of two tracks, with opening keynotes and presentations in the main auditorium, split tracks in the middle of the day, and closing presentations back in the main auditorium both days.

This conference will include presentations from many different OWASP contributors and leading Application Security professionals, and will include one panel each day.

Training Day: Tuesday - May 15th

OWASP has arranged several Application Security one-day training courses which are offered on May 15th, the day prior to the conference. More information about the first tutorial is available here: The Foundations of Web Application Security. This course provides a great introduction for conference attendees into the fundamental security issues that are highly prevalent in today's Web Applications. The prevalence of such vulnerabilities is why OWASP was formed to raise awareness of and help organizations and individuals eliminate such vulnerabilities from their application code.

OWASP has also arranged for a second one-day training course on Web Services Security. Information on this course is available here: Web Services Security. The movement towards Web Services and Service Oriented architecture (SOA) paradigms requires new security paradigms to deal with new risks posed by these architectures. This session takes a pragmatic approach towards identifying Web Services security risks and selecting and applying countermeasures to the application, code, web servers, databases, application, and identity servers and related software.

A third course is now also available: Advanced Asp.Net Exploits and Countermeasures - In this course, you will push ASP.NET to the limit and will be shown how ASP.NET applications and environments can be exploited by skilled attackers.

Evening Social Event - May 16th

At every conference we have an evening social event the first night. This allows participants to have some unstructured time to mingle with the other attendees. They are always fun and typically attract about half the conference attendees. This year's event will be held nearby and is expected to start around 6:30 or 7. After dinner, many of the participants then wander to the nearest bar/pub and continue sometimes into the wee hours of the morning. In Europe last year some were pretty hard core, staying out till 5 AM. I 'think' the bars in Milan probably close earlier than that :-)

Accommodations

OWASP has arranged for a room block of 50 rooms at the Marriott in Milan where the conference is being held. The conference rate is 170 Euros / night (including VAT and breakfast) for up to two people per room. Information about the hotel and reservations can be made at: http://marriott.com/hotels/travel/milit-milan-marriott-hotel/. You can also download, fill out, print, and then fax in this registration form.

OWASP is working to arrange other, hopefully less expensive alternate hotel locations near the conference facility as well. This information will be posted as soon as any additional arrangements have been worked out.
