Welcome to the OWASP Tampa Local Chapter

<paypal>Tampa</paypal>

Anyone in our area interested in information security is welcome to attend. Our meetings are informal and encourage open discussion of all aspects of application security. We invite attendees to give short presentations about specific topics.

We have a mailing list at: https://lists.owasp.org/mailman/listinfo/owasp-tampa

If you have any questions about the Tampa chapter, please send an email to the chapter leader Justin Morehouse.

The Tampa chapter is sponsored by FYRM Associates.

A reminder that CISSPs can earn 1 CPE credit for every hour of attendance at OWASP meetings.

Next Meeting

Our 2010-Q1 meeting will be on Wednesday, March 24, from 6pm to 8pm. Trevor Hawthorn of Stratum Security will be presenting his ShmooCon 2010 talk: The New World of Smartphone Security - What Your iPhone Disclosed About You.

When most people think of Smartphone security, they think forensics, encryption, screen locks, remote wipe, etc. This talk doesn't care about that. The New World of SmartPhone Security tackles security concerns that are not being discussed and have not been publicly disclosed. In this talk we will examine mobile to mobile attacks within cellular IP networks, the iPhone attack surface, iPhone worms, iPhone location-based gaming privacy concerns, and iPhone web application security. Proof of concept attacks, metrics gathered over the last six months, and redacted data gathered during our research will be presented.

Please RSVP to the chapter leader no later than Monday, March 22, so that you can be added to the security list. The meeting will take place at the usual location (see below).

1001 East Palm Ave. Tampa, FL 33605

Park in the Visitor spaces in the main parking lot that is off of East Palm Avenue. You will need to identify yourself at the security desk and ask how to get to Training Room B.
