Come see my talk at B-Sides LA Friday the 19th (today) at 10am

Not Your Granddads Web App

The next generation of applications have started to rule the web, and they look very different from their ancestors.
In the “good ol’ days” web apps had their problems, but it was easier to understand and great resources (tools/practices/trainings) were quickly made available to help.
The new age of applications sit on top of HTTP and HTML with technologies such as AJAX, Flash, Silverlight etc, and their developers are often as naive as teenage girls wearing midriffs and mini-skirts. Today’s applications dazzle with their rich user interface, ability to push logic to the client and retrieve information asynchronously. But these younger applications inherently have the same security problems, which are now obfuscated by fancy looking interfaces and the resources (tools/practices/trainings) available to help are even more limited.

If you cant make the talk, my slides will be available soon at http://www.ntobjectives.com/granddad
