OpenLate @ OpenDNS - Secure Coding with Node.js

Tonight, we have Seth Law, VP of Research and Development at nVisium giving a talk on writing secure code in Node.js.

Abstract:
As we all knew it would, JavaScript has finally overtaken the server. This departure from the client to the server introduces a number of security issues and problems that the language does not handle by default. This talk will cover and demonstrate prevalent security vulnerabilities in Node.js applications. In addition, it will address existing security controls within JavaScript code through the use of an intentionally vulnerable Node.js application.
