Sebastien Deleersnyder, Mano Paul, and I will be the keynote speakers at OWASP Global AppSec Asia 2011. Last year the conference had more than 500 attendants and this year the organization expects over 800 people coming from various verticals including government, information technology, services and consulting, telecommunications, finance, e-commerce, Internet, universities, and research institutes. Major news media will be covering the event.

There is a very high demand today for application security professionals in Asia. I have the privilege of working with many individuals in the People’s Republic of China I respect so much their technical knowledge, work ethics, and humbleness I could only wish we were fewer time zones apart! I hope to meet a lot more people alike in November. Please don’t be shy to come and chat if you see me around the conference floor.
