February Meeting- Mobile Certificate Pinning

Our next meeting will be held on February 7, 2013 at LivingSocial in Reston. We'll have good food and drinks as always, and an awesome meeting location.

As chapter board elections are currently underway, this month we will give all potential candidates an opportunity to state their case for candidacy to the chapter. More information about declaring your candidacy can be found here: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/owasp-nova/QzL63fpqq0s

This month's main presenter is Jeff Walton. He will be presenting on "Mobile Certificate Pinning", and as always Fire Talks are welcome. You don't need slides. If you have something to share with the chapter or a really cool project you're working on, give us a demonstration!

The abstract for Jeff's presentation is below:

Secure channels are a cornerstone to individuals and employees on the go. The mobile environment adds additional pressures to securely
delivering content to users - irregardless of whether its an email
service delivering personal messages to a user, an organization
providing company secrets to a mobile workforce, or a content provider streaming protected media to a subscriber.

This talk will discuss the mobile environment, challenges to securely delivering content, examine past failures, offer remediation for issues in the environment, and discuss some initiatives to address known issues.
