Description

On December 10th, 2021, the world learned about a critical zero-day vulnerability in Log4j circulated by the name “Log4Shell”. Apache gave Log4Shell a CVSS severity rating of 10, the highest available score. Rob will describe the Log4j defect and its implications, and how to protect against it and such defects in the future.

Added bonus: As an Apache committee member, Rob was privy to some details that were not publicly known and might share them if we ask nicely.

Speaker: Rob Tompkins

Rob Tompkins is an AWS expert as well as a committee member for the Apache Commons Project, a ubiquitous open source Java project. Previously a professional whitewater kayaker, and climbing guide.
