Level Up Your Web Security Game

Ready to become a cyber-savvy code defender? In this Pink Sunday we will dive into the dark world of hackers and risky codes. Will we see you there?

At this Pink Sunday we’ll jump into a hands-on workshop where things get real. We’ll explore the dark side of SQL injection—how hackers use it to steal data and mess with your site. You’ll see real examples of risky code, learn how these vulnerabilities can sneak into your projects, and most importantly, how to fix them. By the end, you’ll walk away with practical skills to make your code safer and your sites more secure.

But that’s not all! Get ready to take a step back and rethink your role as a tech professional. Our speaker will challenge us to go beyond just the tools and knowledge we have, encouraging us to be intentional in how we use them to drive positive impact. In a world where the means often become the end, it’s time to pause, reflect, and explore how we can make a difference in our work and beyond. With engaging examples, we’ll dive into these big questions together, sparking inspiration for each of us in our unique way.

Don’t miss this chance to rethink, learn, and level up!

    Inspirational Session & Coding Workshop

    Be curious. Challenge the status quo. Lead.

    Session by: Tamara Goudian

    What does this have to do with tech? In a time when the means become the end, we are invited to pause and reflect on our role in this life as tech professionals and how we can drive positive impact in different ways. We have the tools, we can gain the knowledge, but we need to be intentional with how to use them and what we want to achieve. With examples, together, we will explore these questions and hopefully each of us will be inspired, each in our own special way!
