HackROC Secure Coding Tournament

[Ralph Durkee (OWASP)]

OWASP and ISSA have partnered with Secure Code Warrior for a new approach to secure coding training. This April we'll be holding a secure coding tournament!

Bring your wi-fi enabled laptop with a modern browser to RIT on April 6th at 5:30pm. Tell your friends and compete with them on our live scoreboard.

In this time-limited event, you'll tackle a series of secure coding challenges and be required to locate the insecurity, identify the solution, and fix the vulnerability.

There's a wide range of software languages and frameworks to choose from but we recommend selecting the one you use most often.

We'll have pizza and soda for everyone to enjoy. And for those that reach the top three spots on the scoreboard, we'll have trophies and prizes to give away.

RSVPs are being handled by Ralph, so please reply to this message and we'll add you to the list!

Monday, April 6, 2020
5:30 PM to 8:00 PM
Rochester Institute of Technology
1 Lomb Memorial Dr · Rochester, NY

If there are others in your organization that would be interested in some great free secure development training, please pass along this invite.

I haven't tried the Secure Code Warriors training yet, but in other circles were security professionals are discussing the best secure development training to purchase for their organization, this training has received a lot of positive comments.  And we get to try it for free!  So pass the word on this opportunity, we have plenty of space, but we need everyone to RSVPs.

Thanks,

ROC OWASP,

Unfortunately the HackROC Secure Coding Tournament that was scheduled for April 6 has to be canceled due to COVID-19 concerns.  We may be able to have a virtual on-line event in future, but we'll have to talk more about how to make that happen, and see if there is sufficient interest.

Sorry,
