The goal of the upcoming OWASP – VA Local Chapter meetup on August 6th is to “illuminate assessment techniques that go beyond commodity point-and-click approaches to web application or code scanning.” Code review will be compared to pen testing, whereas the capabilities of automated tools will be compared to manual techniques. The role of threat modeling and architecture analysis will also be examined.
The meetup will also cover “a number of application assessment techniques and discuss the types of security vulnerabilities they are best suited to identify.” Different combination approaches that can be used to produce more thorough results will also be covered.
For those of you who are planning on attending or are think that you might attend, please be sure to RSVP through Stan Wisseman with “OWASP RSVP” as the subject.
