ANN: OWASP AppSec USA 2004 -- June 19/20 NYC

["Jeff Williams" <jeff.williams () aspectsecurity com>]

Dear Colleague,

Please join us for AppSec USA 2004 Conference, June 19-20 in New York City.
AppSec is dedicated to real-world application security issues and solutions.
AppSec 2004 is different from many conferences -- there will be no thinly
disguised vendor pitches or vendor booths. It's pure real-world application
security without the marketing FUD.

Speakers will include the OWASP leaders who've brought us projects like  the
OWASP Guide, Top Ten, WebGoat, and the new Testing and 17799 projects. Come
hear fantastic speakers like John Viega and Dave Aitel talk about
application security. Denis Verdon of Fidelity National Financial will be
giving the keynote address.  Topics will include:

  - Web Application Testing
  - Code Reviews
  - Java Security
  - ASP.NET Security
  - Web Architectures
  - Industry Trends and Emerging Standards
  - Software Security Metrics
  - Security in the Software Development Lifecycle

There will also be new free tools released and panel discussions on the
important issues led by corporate application security practitioners. By
participating you'll have a direct opportunity to help shape and influence
the direction of OWASP in 2004.

We are limited to 300 seats so early registration is highly recommended. The
conference will take place at the Stevens Institute of Technology which is
15 mins from mid-town Manhattan over a two day weekend.

SPECIAL OFFER: If you register before the end of April you will also receive
a FREE copy of "Innocent Code" by Sverre Huseby.

REGISTRATION DETAILS: As a not-for-profit we have been able to keep the cost
to $200 per seat which is less than 10% of what most conferences cost.

following email address conference-nyc () owasp org.  We also have a direct
