xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Great Presentation David xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

David Wharton’s excellent Cross-Site Scripting presentation and the BeEF demo. Defending from the criminals often requires us to understand their tools and resources. This was an excellent example and I’m sure all who attended came away with a new perspective on website security. Below you will find a link to his presentation.
