  • Were there any discounts for students who wished to attend the conference? Yes! Students got in for only $75.
  • How does one volunteer for AppSec USA? Motivated people came forward for OWASP AppSec USA 2011, just like all OWASP AppSec events!
  • If I registered for a training course would I go to all of the other trainings? The training courses were long-format offerings. Each two day course spanned two days total. Each one day course spanned one full day. To ensure that classes weren't interrupted and to ensure that cumulative learning could take place, there was no roaming between courses. Do note, though, that it was possible to take two one-day courses provided they were on different days.
  • How would I have registered for the conference talks and the training in the same registration? The conference registration options at the registration site allowed one to add training courses during the registration (there was also a training-only registration option on the registration site).
  • For future reference, could I have cancelled my registration? You could have cancelled or not showed up after you've registered, but if you didn't notify Sarah Baso at [email protected] of cancellation by August 20, 2011 fees could not be refunded.
  • When were the keynotes and talks? The morning keynote started around 8:30 AM Central Time on September 22 and September 23, 2011. The talks commenced around 9:30 AM each day. Lunch (one day was the OWASP Foundation Board, the other was Moxie Marlinspike) were held around 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM each day of talks. The final talk each day finished around 4:30 PM. On September 22 there was some happy hour fun afterward. On September 23, 2011 there was a wrap up session from about 5:00 PM - 5:15 PM. See the schedule.
