In this talk I give an in depth explanation on how I use emails not just for phishing but to gather intel & make a way in. I will go over the steps to recon your target. To find important information to make sure the email is not just believed but acted on in the way you desire. I will also show you how to create a convincing get out of jail free card. That will aid in avoiding being detained but will also get employees to aid you in your attack.

Spend some time this Saturday afternoon learning and sharing with your PHPeeps!
Our Standard Meeting Format
We love Web Development, PHP, new development techniques and everything in between. Often our meetings are a little free-formed, but for the most part fall into:
- Meet and Greet new members!
- John Kary presents "Last Month in PHP" - Some highlights and happenings in the PHP Universe
- Members bring forward issues, concerns or other items of interest
All Developers Welcome!
We understand that many PHP Developers don't just code in PHP. Whether you are working in a framework like Symfony, Zend Framework, Silex, Slim, FuelPHP, CakePHP or a CMS like WordPress, Drupal or Joomla our goal is that you will find something new, relevant and useful.
We are also happy to have presentations or even code reviews if appropriate. If you are interested in giving either, just let us know!

Entrepreneurism can be an exciting path to success for women working in STEMM fields (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, and Medicine), following naturally from their skills as visionaries, collaborators and problem-solvers.
This Central Exchange event, "Innovative Women, Innovative Entrepreneurs", will explore entrepreneurism as a bold choice for STEMM women with two successful Kansas City STEMM entrepreneurs: Maria Flynn, President and CEO, Orbis Biosciences, and Chrys Sullivan, Founder, Useagility, about how they moved on from their corporate careers to channel their considerable expertise into innovative businesses.
Join us for a panel discussion facilitated by CiCi Rojas, President and CEO, Central Exchange:

Orbis Biosciences is a company that has revolutionized the delivery, efficacy and safety of pharmaceuticals. Flynn holds a M.S. in engineering as well as an M.B.A. Prior to joining Orbis, she was a director at Cerner Corporation. She was recognized this year as one of 2013’s Entrepreneurial Women to Watch by Entrepreneur magazine.
In 2008 Sullivan founded Usagility, an IT company with the idea that technology should be easy to use. Her business model was built around the notion that user-centered design is critical to business success. Before founding Useagility, Sullivan led client experience at H&R Block, responsible for leading user experience and client experience strategy company-wide.
This event is sponsored by the Women in STEMM initiative (WiSTEMM) at the Central Exchange, that seeks to shine a spotlight on careers in science, technology, engineering, mathematics and medicine, and on women in Kansas City who are working in these industries. The series is sponsored by the Central Exchange Education Foundation through a grant from Spencer Reed.
