IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT UPCOMING TRANSITION | February 2026 Chapter Event

Important note about the retirement of the OWASP Meetup platform

Fellow OWASP Toronto members,

We are making an important announcement regarding an upcoming transition. The OWASP Foundation has announced that they will be retiring their Meetup Pro subscription effective January 31, 2026:

This means that our OWASP Toronto Meetup group may be removed in the coming days. We understand this may be short notice, so we want to make this announcement before we lose access.

You are an important part of our chapter community. Many attendees I have spoken to have discovered OWASP Toronto via Meetup. To continue engaging with the community while using a platform that enables discoverability, we will moving to the Evenbrite for publishing our events. You can continue to follow us via our Google Group mailing list, our Chapter page, our LinkedIn group, our YouTube channel, our Slack channel (#owasp-toronto-chapter, does not require an OWASP membership), as well as on our new Discord channel.

We have an amazing event with 2 presentations planned for February 12, hosted once again by our friends at Security Compass. Please stay tuned!

Sincerely,

Yuk Fai Chan
OWASP Toronto Chapter
