 Secure\n   Software\n   When: Thursday\, Aug 8\, 09:00 - 12:59 PDT\n   Whe
 re: Springhill Suites/Dunes - [1]Map\n\n   Description:\n   Before the Tra
 ining: Attendees are expected to have a basic\n   understanding of program
 ming concepts and syntax in a programming\n   language such as JavaScript\
 , Python\, Go\, or C#/Java. While familiarity\n   with common security vul
 nerabilities (e.g.\, OWASP Top 10) is\n   beneficial\, it is not a prerequ
 isite.To ensure a smooth and productive\n   experience\, participants shou
 ld come equipped with a laptop that has\n   administrative access for soft
 ware installation. A pre-training\n   checklist\, including software insta
 llation guides (Semgrep and a\n   preferred text editor/IDE)\, will be pro
 vided to all registered\n   attendees to prepare them for the workshop.\n 
   Participants will: - Gain an understanding of SAST and its importance\n 
   in the AppSec ecosystem. - Learn to navigate Semgrep’s rule syntax\n  
  and create custom rules tailored to their specific security needs. -\n   
 Engage in hands-on exercises to apply Semgrep on real-world code\n   snipp
 ets and projects\, enhancing their learning through practical\n   applicat
 ion. - Explore the Semgrep Playground for testing and refining\n   rules i
 n an interactive environment. - Delve into advanced Semgrep\n   features a
 nd techniques for a comprehensive security strategy. -\n   Understand how 
 Semgrep findings can be leveraged for LLM-based code\n   analysis\, taking
  code security to the next level.\n   Supercharge SAST: Semgrep Strategies
  for Secure Software" is a\n   meticulously designed workshop aimed at int
 roducing participants to\n   the world of Static Application Security Test
 ing (SAST) through the\n   lens of Semgrep\, a cutting-edge tool that comb
 ines the simplicity of\n   syntax with the power of complex analysis.\n   
 Technical Level and Tools Used: This workshop is tailored for beginner\n  
  to intermediate skill levels\, focusing on practical\, actionable\n   ins
 ights that participants can immediately apply to their projects.\n   The p
 rimary tool used will be Semgrep\, supplemented by the Semgrep\n   Playgro
 und for online rule testing. Instructions for installing\n   necessary sof
 tware and accessing online resources will be provided\n   ahead of the wor
 kshop.\n   What You Will Learn: This workshop is structured to guide atten
 dees\n   from the foundational concepts of SAST and application security t
 o the\n   practical application of Semgrep for identifying and mitigating\
 n   security risks in codebases.\n   Speakers:Arjun Gopalakrishna\,Gautam
