Room:
tags
Drupal is a powerful tool that can be configured many ways, sometimes insecurely. Knowing attack vectors against your site and how to prevent them is important for everyone building a Drupal site. In this session, aimed at site-administrators, we'll discuss some vulnerabilities, proper configuration, and what you can do to maintain your site's security.
Topics include:
- Common vulnerabilities and what they mean
- Drupal defaults and why you should care
- Trusting site visitors
- How to recover from attack
Attendees will receive a better understanding of web security and the importance of a strong security process. The session covers a broad set of topics and is designed to provide a foundational, yet functional, introduction to Drupal security.
About the speakers:
Members of the Drupal Security Team, Ben Jeavons and Gábor Hojtsy have spoken on security at previous DrupalCon's and at many DrupalCamps. Additionally, Gábor is the Drupal 6 branch co-maintainer and Ben co-wrote the Drupal Security Report.

I've had feedback in previous
I've had feedback in previous presentations that too much swapping between presenters is distracting and reflects negatively on the entire session. I think two presenters is enough for this session.
