Whelp, it’s that time of year again. Time for vendors to show us what they are made of, and for us to punch holes in everything they worked on all year. No, but seriously, I try to make it a point to get to every RSACon I can. Vendors have a lot of interesting things to say, even if I tend to find lots of issues. Also the people walking the floor incognito tend to be pretty interesting security folk. Not to mention the real reason I want to go, which is the WASC (web application security consortium) meetup:

Place: Jillian’s (Walking distance from the conference) 101 4th Street, Suite 170 San Francisco, CA 94103 Phone: 415.369.6100. Time: Wed, Feb. 7 @ 12:30pm. I’m actually only going for one day (that day) just for the meet and greet. Yup, it’s worth it.

If you’ve never gone to a WASC meetup think of it as the Web application luncheon meet and greet. Unlike the OWASP meetings there’s not a lot of tech-talk, but usually 20 or so good people and you get to meet the people behind the names face to face. If you happen to be at RSACon on Wednesday, check it out. Let Jeremiah know if you plan on making it, so he can make the right sized reservations. If you can’t, don’t worry, I’ll probably blog about it when I get back.
