M, I'm also in the UK. Although I've not attended I'm aware of EUSecWest http://eusecwest.com/ held in London which happened in May. Its run by the same people that bring you CanSecWest. It seems to have had some interesting talks by people like Charlie Miller and Joanna Rutkowska. I need to make a conscious effort to check it out and see what its like. Did anyone go? I'm definitely going to save up my pennies and head to Defcon next year. Regards, K41zen On 30 Jul 2009, at 13:53, lists at truthisfreedom.org.uk wrote:
Hi all, Working in the IT industry, I'm well aware that computer security is a world-wide problem, however I'm having real issues finding other people in the UK that are interested in events like Capture the Flag and security conferences. Most of the security conferences I've attended over here are really glorified sales pitches from the primary sponsor along with loads of other companies guaranteing to "secure 100% of your data for ever and never get hacked in your life whilst your one of our customers for less money than you might think" and other such quackery. [0] Is anyone else on the list in the UK? If so, have I missed an entire sub-culture or is it just not british to talk about the fact that people get hacked? :) Cheers, M. [0] If you value your data, you shouldn't need to secure it for "less than you think", you should be willing to pay what ever you have to IMHO... :P _______________________________________________ Pauldotcom mailing list Pauldotcom at mail.pauldotcom.com http://mail.pauldotcom.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pauldotcom Main Web Site: http://pauldotcom.com
