Talk 1: Why do Agile anyway? by Erik de Bos
YouTube trailer

Do you wonder why you are doing Agile? Organisations will say "we need to keep up with a changing world", or "we need to be more efficient so we can keep up with the competition". But how does Agile tie into that? In reality, Agile is the silver bullet to fix all problems, but we rarely understand the problem we are trying to solve.

In this talk, we will explore the problem we are trying to solve. We will discuss how Agility starts with understanding the problem, and that with that understanding, true Agility is about finding your own solutions for that problem.

Talk 2: Penetration Testing for Developers by Nic Wortel
YouTube trailer

SQL injection, password cracking, session hijacking... As a developer, you've probably heard of some of these terms, and might be aware of the basic measures to counter them. But how does a hacker execute such attacks? What tools do they use? And how easy would it be to attack your own application? By starting to think like our adversaries, we have a better chance of finding vulnerabilities in our software before they can be exploited.

In this talk we will look at a few tools used by attackers and ethical hackers alike to find (and exploit) vulnerabilities in web applications. By the end of the talk, you will have a better understanding of how an attacker might target your application and how you can use the same tools to discover vulnerabilities yourself first.

We don't like wasting food, so please do not unsubscribe 3 days prior to the meet-up or be a no-show.

See you in May!
