OWASP Ottawa Sept 10th, Montreal Sept 17th

It's OWASP time again, and the speaker this time around is... well, me. :)

I'm going to be giving a presentation based on ongoing research into detection and prevention of JavaScript exploits. Here's the official outline:

Crossing the Border – JavaScript Exploits

JavaScript-based exploits are a serious threat on the Internet today. This talk explores how the countermeasures to deal with script based attacks parallel 2200 years of Chinese border security. The speaker will cover the benefits and drawbacks of current prevention methods and introduce future techniques to keep bad scripts at bay.

If you're not familiar with OWASP, local chapter meetings are FREE and open to anyone who wants to attend. Simply RSVP and come out to meet other information security professionals.
