The commentary of a security heretic, skeptic and wayward scientist.
For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream. -Vincent Van Gogh

SC Magazine Awards 2011
The SC Magazine Awards 2011 takes place next Tuesday (2/15) at the Intercontinental Hotel in San Francisco. The awards ceremony will honor leaders in the security industry, from government to non-profits, and showcase the best in the vendor-space and security certifications and training programs. I have been asked to introduce the award for one category, so I'll definitely be there. I'm thinking of buying a bow-tie!

Announcing the upcoming talk by Mike Bazzell on Internet privacy, sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society of Iowa-Illinois, and the Quad City Cyber Security Group.
This presentation identifies many unknown repositories of personal information available to anyone on the internet. Through data mining companies and those that post personal information about others, data once considered private is now public. This look at our new lack of privacy will surprise even those that think they are not vulnerable. Over 120 sources of online information will be discussed. Aside from web sites, other technology such as digital camera data, document meta data, and files being unknowingly copied to your computer will be explained.
