Written by Published in AppSecUSA 2015 Blog

Here are 4 reasons why AppSecUSA is the premier conference for CISO’s, developers, and security experts to discuss new approaches to secure web applications – September 22-25, 2015 in downtown San Francisco.

  1. TAKE A SELFIE WITH FACEBOOK’s NEW CSO, the Chief Cybersecurity Official at DHS, Microsoft’s MVP for Developer Security, and so many other web security visionaries from Cisco, Whitehat, RiskIQ, Salesforce, Docker, Adobe, Coinbase, Netflix, Thoughtworks, Linkedin, Fortify, HP, Checkmarx, Akamai, Denim Group, Yahoo, Aspect Security, Intuit, NCC Group, Prevoty, and more. Check out this list of speakers. What other conference offers selfies with Alex Stamos?
  2. GO OUT TO SEA WITH THE WORLD’S TOP CISO’S on our 2-hour dinner boat cruise around San Francisco Bay. Cruise is *included* in your conference ticket price. Check out these pictures of the ship – and don’t fear even if you’ve been seasick, this boat is so large that you won’t feel a thing. What other conference has a boat tour?
  1. GET A JOB IN SECURITY at the Career Fair – rub shoulders with recruiters and hiring managers from Netflix, Twitter, Airbnb, Palantir, Linkedin, Netsuite, Tableau, Macy’s, General Electric, Autodesk, 23andMe, MobileIron, and more. What other conference has all the best employers under one roof?
  1. GET ENLIGHTENED BY LIGHTNING TRAININGS with 1-hour sessions on immediately applicable security topics such as:
  • Getting Started with ModSecurity WAF
  • Security Testing for Enterprise Messaging Applications
  • The Bug Hunters Methodology
  • Protecting your Web Application with Content Security Policy

Check out this list of lightning trainings. What other conference is enlightening and lightning.

That’s my four reasons why AppSecUSA is the premier application security conference. Are you sold yet? I’m looking forward to seeing you September 22nd to 25th in San Francisco at OWASP AppSecUSA!
