March 6: Security Basics For Developers - How Hackers Get In - @launchcode @robkraft

This is going to be a great presentation!  How do I know?  Because I'm the presenter!

I'm going to go over some basic defensive coding developers should employ.  This is targeted to new developers, so not a lot of depth, but a great intro to those not aware of the risks.
