As promised few days ago, I publish materials from a presentation I gave at IT Underground Conference in Prague, Czech Republic.

Here’s a slideshow with full speaker’s notes. Spread the word ;)

Tomorrow I will be speaking at IT Underground Security Conference and Workshop in Prague, Czech Republic. That is three day long event that starts today.

I will give a talk on “Websecurity through conventions and best practices” which will be focused on securing web applications from the most common attacks with examples from Ruby on Rails web development framework.

Expect to see materials from the conf here in few days.

Last month the netguru team has been invited to Corporate Responsibility and Information Technology Conference organized by AIESEC (international student organization) which took place in Częstochowa, Poland. We went there and gave some talks on various topics and I think some of you may find materials from this conference quite interesting.

First, we led an unofficial discussion on “The (fading) differences between desktop and web applications”. We introduced the topic to our hearers and then let them express themselves, it was quite successful.

On Day 2, we organized Ruby on Rails workshops which consisted of “Introduction to RoR” talk and one-hour live-coding session during which a simple twitter like application has been developed. You can find the results on our Github account.

We finished Day 2 with a talk on Enterprise 2.0 and on Day 3 we talked about “Developing a web-development company (startup)”, which was quite different from what people heard on earlier talks gave by the representatives of big corporations. I have no materials to share on this, though. Sorry.
