OWASP Invests in Students – Attend AppSecUSA for $75

Written by Published in AppSecUSA 2015 Blog

The OWASP AppSecUSA conference is excited to announce that we’re offering a limited number of tickets exclusively available to university students for the greatly discounted price of $75 (regular price $995).

The challenges of application security are being fought by today’s security experts. However, the next generation of security experts will come from students in University today. For the security industry to be successful there are many things we must do. One of these items is increasing the pool of talented professionals. We hope by encouraging students to attend AppSecUSA we can provide them an insight into the opportunities in the field and make a small contribution to future security engineers.

The OWASP AppSecUSA conference has numerous events that will be of interest to students. The deep technical knowledge within the conference sessions will appeal to all students, lightning trainings are also a great place to learn a new security skill. In addition there is a career fair on Thursday that is a great opportunity for students and working security professionals!
