Announcing a new Meetup for The Online ColdFusion Meetup!

What: “Practical Ajax Security”, with Jason Dean

Our 12pm (US ET) talk on Thursday Sep 23 will be “Practical Ajax Security”, with Jason Dean.

TOPIC DESCRIPTION: (provided by the speaker)

With the introduction of Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) over the last several years, it seems that everyone is jumping on the RIA bandwagon. But is any thought being given to what might need to be done to ensure that our Web 2.0 applications are secure? Or are they are not introducing new vulnerabilities into existing applications? In this presentation, we will look at some of the security issues that can arise from introducing Ajax into your applications and about how to mitigate the risks of opening up remote services for Ajax.
