What we’re about
Welcome to the Dener OWASP Meetup!
We're the local chapter of a global force for good in the digital world. Think of OWASP as a worldwide team of digital defenders—a non-profit community of cybersecurity pros, developers, and tech experts on a mission to make the software we all use safer.
What We Do: We get together to share cutting-edge knowledge, explore new tools, and connect with peers who are passionate about security. We believe in empowering everyone—from individual coders to massive corporations—to outsmart the bad guys by building stronger, more secure applications.
Who Should Join? If you're a developer, security professional, student, or are just curious about application security (AppSec), you've found your people. Come learn, share what you know, and help us make the digital world a safer place!
