Miki Demeter will be joining us to discuss open source software on April 29th!

Open source software is code that is designed to be publicly accessible; anyone can see, modify, and distribute the code as they see fit.

This talk will cover open source software and why it's important to look at the software that is put into products.

Miki's current position is as a Security Researcher in the IPAS GO (formerly Security Center of Excellence) working on Secure Development Lifecycle governance and as Product Security Expert for Open Source Software.

She is a TrevorChat Crisis Counselor and is working with outside organizations like Women Who Code, Women of Security, Portland Women in Tech, and the Diana Initiative to help drive diversity and true inclusion while advocating for women in the STEM field.
