As a coda to Cyber Security Month in October, UNH IT (like the ring of that?) will be hosting a Web Security Jam on November 18th at 2pm (at an undisclosed location)… a bring-your-own-jelly gathering of developers, sys admins and anyone else interested in modern web security topics. As always, we learn fastest and best from each other.

UNH faculty and staff are welcome and are asked to email me for an invitation. That’s right, please use that link and invite yourself by mailing me. We’d like to know how many people plan to show up and I also want the chance to personally harass you into also presenting. We would love you to share any tiny nugget of wisdom you have on keeping websites and applications secure. We also want to make sure you are a UNH employee to attend this sensitive event, at which you’ll be frisked. Kidding on the frisking.

We will however announce the location of this event by mail to those of you who invite yourselves. Please let me know if you have any questions. Last year we heard about SQL injection, cross-site scripting, security-focused code reviews and other topics. Let’s see where it goes this year.
