Below is information regarding a webcast I will be leading for SANS on 03/18/2009 at 10 AM EST. Should be fun.
Build Your Own Army of Darkness: XSS Frameworks for Zombies and Profit
Featuring: Seth Misenar
In this preview to the newly updated SEC542 Web Application Penetration Testing course being offered in Amsterdam, you will learn how build and control your very own zombie battalion/Army of Darkness. The discussion will start with a whizz|bang overview of the new 6 day version of SEC542, and quickly move to XSS Frameworks and, of course, zombies galore. Whether you are excited or petrified by the prospect of zombies, join Seth Misenar for this hour long webcast. As Bruce Campbell/Ash of Evil Dead fame would say, “Groovy”.
