Welcome to OWASP AppSec Research 2012

Hello and welcome to the OWASP AppSec Research 2012.

This conference is practically the OWASP AppSec Europe. Every two years we add “Research” in order to highlight that we invite both industry and academia to participate, share thoughts, knowledge and insight on application security.

OWASP AppSec Research is the European conference for anyone interested in application security. This year it will be hosted by the Department of Informatics and Telecommunications of the University of Athens, Greece and will take place between July 10-13th.

The first OWASP AppSec Research conference was held in Stockholm in 2010.
