What we're about

No presentation, no lecture, not a typical meetup. This is a hands-on session to upskill in secure programming.

At SecGames, we explore a vulnerable app to find and fix its vulnerability. The winner is the first person who fixes the vulnerability. The winner then shares her/his solution so we can all learn (or possibly find more bugs!).

SecGames caters for both beginners and experienced professionals. So don’t feel shy and join us. We would love to see more people caring about and practising software security.
