Building a Security Initiative - Experience and BSIMM Measurement from the Field

Details
Our February meetup features an old friend to the OWASP chapter and an interesting presentation. As always, well be providing food and drinks.
Abstract: The Building Security In Maturity Model (or BSIMM)
BSIMM observes and measures what firms' software security initiatives are actually doing. John, who has helped several firms build or improve their security initiatives, will share sometimes surprising data about security initiatives big and small. His presentation will focus on what
activities organizations use to "boot" security initiatives and which they presently focus on.
