Meeting in May featuring John Strand

Our next ISSA meeting will be Tuesday May 6 and will feature John Strand!  This free meeting is open to the public, so please share with your friends and security colleagues!

How to Fail at a Pen Test
In this presentation, John will cover some key components that many penetration tests lack, including why it is important to get caught, why it is important to learn from real attackers and how to gain access to organizations without sending a single exploit.   Additionally, John will show you how to bypass "all powerful" white listing applications that are often touted as an impenetrable defense.
