OWASP Live CD 2008 - An OWASP Summer of Code Project August 26, 2008

Topic: OWASP Live CD 2008 - An OWASP Summer of Code Project

The OWASP Live CD 2008 project is an OWASP SoC project to update the previously created OWASP 2007 Live CD. As the project lead, I'll show you the latest version of the Live CD and discuss where its been and where its going. Some of the design goals include:

1. easy for the users to keep the tools updated
2. easy for the project lead to keep the tools updated
3. easy to produce releases (I'm thinking quarterly releases)
4. focused on just web application testing - not general Pen Testing
