Name: OWASP Birmingham December Meeting 🎄⛄
Start: 2024-12-05T18:00:00Z
End: 2024-12-05T20:00:00Z
Location: 1 Colmore Square

Hey all,

📅 Date: Thursday 5th December 2024
⏰ Time: 6:00 PM onwards
📍 Location: Hays Office, Central Birmingham

As usual, we'll have:

* Two exciting cybersecurity talks
* Food and refreshments provided
* A chance to talk and connect with folks from across the cyber sector in the Midlands

All are welcome - from students to veterans and everyone in between!

Agenda (ish) below:

5.45pm - Doors open
6.15pm - Welcome and Food
6.30pm - TALK #1 "How to secure the Black Hat infrastructure"

**Speaker:** James Holland (Technology Innovation at Palo Alto Networks)
**Synopsis:** There's a good reason that the organisers of the Black Hat conferences don't use the hots venue's own infrastructure. In fact there are many: ethical hackers learning and testing their skills, not-so-ethical hackers looking for targets, researchers demonstrating new offensive techniques, plus a lot of legal implications too.
We'll go behind the scenes at the network and security operations centres for the Black Hat conferences worldwide, to share more details, stories and plain-text credentials.

7.00pm - Break
7.15pm - TALK #2 "Ship Happens: The Stormy Seas of Supply Chain Security"

**Speaker:** David Archer (Solution Architect at Endor Labs)
**Synopsis:** Modern software development is a sprawling network of open-source dependencies, sophisticated build tools, plugins, pipelines, repositories and runtimes.
This “supply chain” is under relentless attack and many of the potential threats are poorly understood by our development and security teams.
We’ll take a warts-and-all look at how software is produced, re-used and “secured”.
We'll explore strategies to mitigate some of the threats that exist and share practical takeaways that you can immediately implement in their software development practices.
Expect to leave with a feeling of dread(!), but also hopefully a deeper understanding of supply chain security and where you should pay closer attention to your software factory.

7.45pm - Questions/Any Other Business
8.00pm - Close

Looking forward to seeing you there!
