Not knowing what attackers do makes writing secure web applications a tough job and learning all the tiny details as well as the important tricks pretty much impossible. This hands-on tutorial will demonstrate how hackers work when attacking a website, giving you first hand information on every day security problems. You will learn how to secure your own website and what else to consider in protecting your environment in general.

Very useful material. Was nice to have a demo application with security holes to look at.

Thought it'd be something of a review, but I was pleased to find a number of attack vectors that I had never considered before (like clickjacking). A lot of fun; very informative. The discussion of specific solutions was both quick and helpful.

Very informative talk with lots of great information. I loved the security application at the end that he actually showed attacks in action and how to protect against them.

Want to use the SNIFF tool to demonstrate security vulnerabilities to my students at FSU :)

Great talk. Enjoyed the use of SNIFF to demonstrate security issues covered in the first half of the talk.
