A Practical discussion from the other side of web security. Everyone makes mistakes, and leaves security holes on their website (XSS, CSRF, Session Hijacking, SQL Injection). This talk instead of focusing on what to do to prevent these, instead is a crash course on what to do when you discover that the site HAS been hacked. How to track down the problem as quickly as possible so that you can close it.
Eli is an internet programmer with over 12 years of experience. The last 8 of those have been spent almost exclusively with PHP programming. He has worked a number of jobs, spending 6 years working on the Hubble Space Telescope project, and for the last couple years has been working as a PHP Hacker for digg.com. He also co-authored the book ‘PHP 5 in Practice’, and has presented at numerous conferences.
