I continue to do a good deal of development.

 +
My first contact with OWASP was the AppSec Europe conference at Royal Holloway outside of London in 2005. Since then I have mainly been a consumer of OWASP resources, apart from giving a few talks at various chapter meetings. My goal with OWASP is to help development teams build "enough" security into their projects and to raise general awareness about OWASP and application security. That is why I believe that outreach and education type initiatives must be key aspects in the future direction of OWASP."

By the second half of 2005 and early 2006 I was a schoolarship holder of CNPq and acted as intern at C.E.S.A.R. learning secure coding techniques in C. I confess I had a great time there but I could have learned much more. After my time in C.E.S.A.R. was over, I worked, also as intern, in coadmin team at Tempest Technologies, a very nice market-leading company Brazilian information security industry. Tempest was nice because, it doesn't sell fear and lies like other companies that make this industry so filthy. I asked to leave the company because I had no time to study and my grades were dropping as hell. By the way, Recife is also a brazilian technological pole. Cases like Porto Digital and C.E.S.A.R. are the living proof of it. Because of these initiactives we have now based in Recife major companies such as Motorola, Intel, Samsung, LG Electronics, Nokia research institute and even Microsoft.

It's difficult to describe my knowledge in the security world without being subjective, hence replace some by whatever your feel happy with. The official title on the v-card will be senior security and network consultant, which means something too.
 +
(Short) CV
 +
I'm doing software development since early '80s, used to networking all the time, and focused on web application security starting this millenium. Meanwhile I've seen coming, have evaluated, have configured and used, and have seen disappearing a lot of WAFs and web application security scanners. Founded sic[!]sec GmbH in 2010.

enjoy trying to think of unique ways of breaking applications from a business logic stand point. I have published the following papers: • Blind Buffer Overflows in ISAPI extensions: http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1819 - This article was released on the main page of the leading security news and information site, Security Focus in January 2005. • The Benefits of Combining Automated and Manual Penetration Testing (Japanese Only): https://www4.symantec.com/Vrt/offer?_requestid=22090&a_id=42747 – This white paper was written to aid our sales team in educating our customers as to the benefits of combining manual testing with automated tools. I felt that the Japanese market relied too heavily on tool based analysis so the paper was written to show what automated tools cannot find.

Fitzgerald, Alexis

"I spent many years on the development side of the fence working on both thick client and web-based applications. That was mainly in the financial sector in Ireland and Switzerland. In the early noughties somebody asked me if I had heard of this thing called "SQL Injection". That was when I began the transition from poacher to gamekeeper, working on the security end of things. I continue to do a good deal of development.

My first contact with OWASP was the AppSec Europe conference at Royal Holloway outside of London in 2005. Since then I have mainly been a consumer of OWASP resources, apart from giving a few talks at various chapter meetings. My goal with OWASP is to help development teams build "enough" security into their projects and to raise general awareness about OWASP and application security. That is why I believe that outreach and education type initiatives must be key aspects in the future direction of OWASP."

Perego, Paolo

Paolo was born in 1976 in Milan, Italy. Since he was 5, he started disassembling toys trying to understand their internals... it was very rare he was able to put

the pieces back in their place. So his infancy was full of broken toys... but at least he discovered what's inside a little car moving by itself. Let's call this Paolo's life phase: 'Breaking the law' When he discovered computers, Paolo learnt also to repair software he broke. He started patching buffer overflows, format bugs and other crappy C programs. It was 1996, he discovered Linux, the networking and the kernel land. It was the time Pink Floyd were in loop in Paolo's walkman. Let's call this Paolo's life phase: 'So your instruction pointer is full of 0x41?'Nowadays Paolo's interest in reviewing and fixing broken code turn him in an application security specialist. He wrote software for an Italian web agency, and he has a side project as Independent Software Vendor as armoredcode.com. He is involved in Owasp as Project Leader of Owasp Orizon (a code review engine) and Owasp ESAPI for Ruby porting. He is also in the Owasp Italian chapter board. It's the time that Pearl Jam and old school metal music fill Paolo's mp3 player, he is a husband, a proud father, a guitarist and he is close from being black belt Taekwon-do ITF martial artists. Let's call this Paolo's life phase: 'Stay hungry, stay foolish'
