🚨 OWASP Ottawa April 2026 Meetup - Featuring Rodrigo Rocha! 🚨

OWASP Ottawa is excited to announce our April 2026 meetup featuring Rodrigo Rocha present their talk “Threat Modeling in Practice: From Diagram to Defense". The details are as follows:

📍 Location: 150 Louis-Pasteur Private, University of Ottawa, Room 580
📅 Date: April 15, 2026
⏰ Time: 6:00 PM EST - Arrival, networking, & pizza! 🍕
6:30 PM EST - Technical Talk

Threat Modeling is often seen as heavy, theoretical, or compliance-driven, which leads to it being skipped. This session will focus on Rodrigo introducing a practical, lightweight approach to Threat Modeling that fits directly into agile workflows.

Using a real-world healthcare portal example, Rodrigo will walk us through the process from drawing a simple data flow diagram to identifying critical assets, mapping real attack scenarios (via MITRE CAPEC), linking root causes (CWE), and translating them into testable security requirements using OWASP ASVS.

Whether you’re a student, early-career professional, or seasoned practitioner looking to learn more about Threat Modeling, come aboard and learn from experts!

We look forward to seeing you there in-person! If you cannot attend the event, you can watch the livestream on our YouTube channel.
