Good Evening Full Disclosure Members, The Internet + Web Application Security Blog has posted a recent news article surrounding the past "Web Application Security Awareness Day" that was to have occurred on May 1, 2008. While many were skeptical that the n3td3v agenda has any influence whatsoever after numeros failures and embarrassments, there were still a handful that were hoping that they could meet with success. Unfortunately this did not occur and we witnessed one of the word failures in modern web application security history. A full article on this event has been cataloged at the following site - http://websec2008.blogspot.com/ Brief excerpt ~~~ Saturday May 3, 2008 media and security researchers have come to the conclusion that "Web Application Security Awareness Day" was a complete and utter failure. This stunning revelation comes just two days after the event came to a close, without a single submission or person recognizing the event. "We just kept waiting and hoping a single submission would come in. We were thinking that maybe the researchers had their clocks set wrong or they were working hard on a release that just couldn't cut the deadline", said a well known industry expert who wishes to remain anonymous. ~~~ Please visit our web site and we will keep you informed of any developments. -Howard Jurgenmeit Internet + Web Application Security Blog Staff Writer http://websec2008.blogspot.com/ websec2008 () gmail com
I'm sure they'll be other theme days though that others will start, like a Buffer Overflow Security Awareness Day that others can organise. I'm just leading the way of a new trend, my day wasn't successful, but if HD Moore or others announce some other theme day, i'm sure it will be a success. The mailing lists have become boring over the years, theme days are just something to make the lists more exciting and stimulating again. All the best, n3td3v _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
