Wait, Wait! Don't pwn Me!

Presented at AppSec USA 2015, Sept. 25, 2015, 1 p.m. (55 minutes)

Test your wits and current AppSec news knowledge against our panel of distinguished guests. In the past, panelists have included Joshua Corman (Sonatype), Chris Eng (Veracode), Space Rogue (The Universe), Matt Tesauro (RackSpace), Ed Burns (Oracle), Justin Woo (PayPal), Jacob West (NetSuite) and Matthew McCullough (GitHub). "Wait Wait... Don't Pwn Me!" is patterned after the NPR news quiz show where we challenge the panel and the audience with "Bluff the Listener", "This Week's Security News", "The Security Limerick Challenge" and "Lightning Fill In the Blank".

Think you know your stuff? Get selected as an audience participant and prove it! Join us for a rollicking hour as we test the panel and the audience on recent security stories in the news. Who knows? Maybe you can pwn the panel.
