CFCamp 2013 Conference

Railo LogoOctober, 14th – 15th 2013
Germering (near Munich)
Germany

Already the fourth time we organize the CFCamp! Each year it was bigger and more comprehensive. The CFCamp has established itself as a fixture for ColdFusion developers and offers this year again many interesting sessions by well-known speakers.

In addition to the two day conference there will be an interesting program of free courses, sessions, the CFAcademy and a fantastic party!

As venue, we again rented the Stadthalle Germering, which was the ideal location for us in the last year.

Due to the great feedback from CFCamp 2012, we will optimize this year CFCamp to the needs of participants and exhibitors.

Our 6pm (US ET) talk on Thursday July 12 will be “A crash course in MVC with FW/1″, with Steven Neiland.

TOPIC DESCRIPTION: (provided by the speaker)

There are a lot of articles on architecture design dealing with MVC out there but most are really intellectual discussions that really are not much help for developers who are new to the whole concept. By leveraging the ease and simplicity of framework one I hope to demonstrate how to actually create a MVC application from scratch and outline some basic guidelines as to do’s, don’ts and if when’s.

Thursday, July 5, 2012

Our 6pm (US ET) talk on Thursday July 5 will be a “Multi-Factor Authentication in ColdFusion”, with Denard Springle.

(I know it’s been quite a while since our last CFMeetup. We’re ‘back on the air’ and I have several more presenters already lined up for July. More news to come soon.)

TOPIC DESCRIPTION: (provided by the speaker)

Over the years authentication schemes have changed drastically from the old days of username and password logins. Today, there are multiple kinds of multi-factor authentication mechanisms in use that add complexity and security to your login processes. We’ll explore some of these newer authentication techniques and show you how to easily implement a secure authentication process in every application you write. We’ll also cover basic PCI compliance, encryption, obfuscation, and access control lists along with password security, password recovery, session management and other topics that relate to building a robust authentication system.
