Hundreds of web application tests later, Jim is here to tell you there's no such thing as a solved problem. Having played OWASP bingo more times than he cares to count, there are a lot of reasons that applications are vulnerable and the guardrails fail. Jim will talk you through multiple critical issues discovered in the wild and how they were found, and how you too can put on your hoody and take the unhappiest path possible through a web application.
Jim is a former developer who specialises in deep dives into web application attacks as well as research into the Microsoft ecosystem. This has resulted in CVEs, disclosures to the MSRC (Microsoft Security Reporting Centre) and patched bugs in Visual Studio, MS Word and MS Outlook. He is an active and successful bug bounty hunter, who combines creative techniques from bug bounty, security research and pentesting to achieve and deliver excellent client outcomes. Jim has presented original research and vulnerabilities at several international conferences including Defcon, Off-By-One (Singapore), CHCon and OWASP. He has a strong focus on fostering a healthy security community, helping to run a monthly security focused meetup in Wellington.
Come network with like-minded developers, share experiences, and gain valuable insights.
