If you have heard about twitter, wondered about a service that begins with ‘twit’ and have pondered the advantages and concerns – listen in to the Security Roundtable that discusses those very points.

Our guest for this episode is Zach – security professional, friend of the show and curator of the Security Twits list.

Next Recording: Saturday, October 11, 2008 @ 10a Eastern – look for the live stream (and your chance to participate) around 10:15.

 

PS: 10 Days after the break-in and theft – we’re still working with insurance and others to sort out the mess, get the laptops replaced and head back out on the road. I will be posting a complete run-down of what happened, what we did well, what we learned and how we are going to improve. I’m also following the advice of my book – and will be publishing a set of requirements and inviting participation as we all learn smarter ways to protect ourselves. This will hit home for small businesses and those who travel a lot. 

I am confirming some exciting opportunities this week and next – and should be back out on the road within the next 10-15 days. The theft slowed us down a bit, but has not stopped us. Not one bit. Thanks for your continued support and help!

The Security Catalyst no May 2008 Security Round Table | RSA – Going Beyond the Hype http://www.securitycatalyst.com/2008/05/may-2008-security-round-table-rsa-going-beyond-the-hype/ http://www.securitycatalyst.com/2008/05/may-2008-security-round-table-rsa-going-beyond-the-hype/#comments Wed, 14 May 2008 23:58:37 +0000 Michael Santarcangelo http://www.securitycatalyst.com/blog/?p=447 I had a great time at RSA 2008 this year, but didn’t attend any keynotes and only saw some snippets of sessions. Yet I took several *quality* briefings during the course of the week — and will be interviewing, profiling and sharing my impressions over the coming months. I started the week a bit sad — after walking the show floor, it felt to me that the industry was, en masse, running in entirely the wrong direction. I ended the week not only with renewed hope, but with new and powerful insights.

RSA carries a lot of hype. Now that the conference is over, Martin and I wanted to go beyond the hype and invited a panel with mixed experience to share with us their impressions, opinions and lessons learned. During this SRT, we cover the role of bloggers as media, the *real* value of RSA and a whole bunch of other interesting issues and perspectives.

I also share, near the end, what I thought the theme should have been. Thinking about it now, it is a good choice for next year, or even for a SCC conference!

This marks the return of the SRT. We already have the June SRT recorded — a great show with the Jericho Forum, dispelling a lot of myths and providing some good insight into how they are helping to drive change in the industry. In July we’ll tackle the issue of using botnets to fight botnets and August will revisit a topic raised during the May SRT — the responsibility of security bloggers and the role of new media.

Happy Listening.
