Speaker: Paul Reinheimer

Consider "Easy" problems in web applications, like login forms. On the surface, terribly simple, slap some escaping functions on a query and you're done! Well, not quite, what about brute force login attempts? Locking accounts? Captachas!

This talk will examine a few of those easy problems, how hard they really are, and present specific solutions and methodologies.

  2. Yeah Joeri Cochuyt is right,
    slides would be verry helpful.

  3. Interesting topics in the podcast. Like others said, availability of slides help.

  4. Thank you all for the comments. I'm glad you liked this episode. When the slides to a talk are published, I link to them. However, the content is owned by our speakers and they are graciously allowing us to publish the audio so we can't be too ungrateful if they choose not to publish the slides.

    If Paul does publish the slides, I will update this post.
