This talk is the "how do they do that" of web application hacking. The talk will cover live examples of most of the attack vectors used against web applications in the wild today. The latter part of the talk will discuss topics like the current defenses (and why they suck), automatic testing (and the challenges they face) and how this will all change (or not!) with the introduction of new technologies like SOAP and web services.
