[Baypiggies] This month's BayPiggies talk: Django and Security by James Bennett

Jeff Fischer jeffrey.fischer at gmail.com
Tue Nov 1 13:46:16 EDT 2016


Due to Thanksgiving, the talk will be held *one week earlier* than usual,
on Thursday, *November 17*.

*Speaker: *James Bennett

*Location:*
LinkedIn, Yosemite Room
605 W. Maude Ave, Sunnyvale, CA

Note that this is a *new location* -- the October location was temporary,
due to LinkedIn's move. The new room holds 250 people!

*Abstract*
This talk will be a historical tour of the Django project's approach to
security. We'll cover how Django's security policies have evolved over its
eleven-year history, the ways the framework has integrated security as a
major goal, and what we can learn from looking at patterns in the security
issues that have occurred in Django.

*About the Speaker*
James has been using Django almost since the day it was publicly released,
and a member of the Django core team since 2007. He currently serves on the
Django security team and technical board, and as a Director of the Django
Software Foundation. At his day job, James works to reinvent health
insurance as part of the engineering team at Clover Health in San
Francisco.

*RSVP*
Please RSVP at meetup: https://www.meetup.com/BAyPIGgies/events/232817003/

This will give us an idea of how many will attend (to order food, etc.).
