Welcome the OWASP Buffalo NY chapter

The Buffalo NY chapter was formed in August 2004. We meet 4 times a year for 1 to 2 hours per meeting and discuss topics related to web application security.

Goals & Objectives

It is our goal to freely distribute information related specifically to web application security. We want to ensure our members receive "free, professional-quality, open-source documentation, tools, and standards", as quoted directly from the main OWASP site. Participation is free and open to all. All are encouraged to participate.

Presentation Overview:

This presentation addresses the requirements outlined in the PCI Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) version 1.1 that are relevant to web application development and security, and will provide guidance on how to meet these requirements. The PCI DSS version 1.1, a set of comprehensive requirements for enhancing payment account data security, was developed by the founding payment brands of the PCI Security Standards Council, including American Express, Discover Financial Services, JCB International, MasterCard Worldwide and Visa Inc., to help facilitate the broad adoption of consistent data security measures on a global basis. All organizations that process, store or transmit credit card data are required to comply with the PCI DSS 1.1 requirements.

About the speaker:

Christian Call, a recognized Dartmouth College graduate, worked for many years as a software developer in the areas of Operating Systems (IBM), object code-level program translation (AT&T Bell Laboratories), network firewalls (Lucent Technologies Bell Labs Innovations), network security (Lumeta), and Public Key Infrastructure (US Army/Maden Tech Consulting). As a Sales Engineer, Chris worked with application security companies Secure Software, Inc. and Ounce Labs before joining Breach Security. Chris is the East Coast Sales Engineer for Breach, and has worked with some of Breach’s largest customers on proof-of-concept, demonstration of value, deployment, and support.
