-3 days: ISIS Labs is bringing 6 of its finest to compete in the North-East Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition (NECCDC) in Rochester, NY this weekend. Wish us luck!

I’ll try and keep you informed as to how the contest is going, what it’s like to compete in one of these things, and if we are winning by live-blogging the event from our hotel room each night. I don’t see that banned in any of the dozens of rules we’ve been made aware of so far! Continue reading ‘Blogging the NECCDC’

I just learned from the Matasano guys that NYSec 5 will be on February 19.  Mark your calendars!

NYSEC 5 is Feb 19th, 2007. A Monday. 6:30PM. We’ll stay until people get tired of hanging out. We’re guessing 2-3 hours. Located at Pound and Pence. That’s downtown Manhattan, on the corner of Liberty and Nassau. If you don’t like it, show up and suggest somewhere else!

We are usually upstairs by the pool table.

For the uninitiated, NYSec is a casual get together of a bunch of InfoSec people that happens as often as they feel like it.  I wasn’t able to make the first 4 gatherings (grrrr) but I’m definitely going to this one!  See you there!

The UbuCon is an unconference for Ubuntu users, developers, and sysadmins taking place on February 16th at the new Google offices in Manhattan. A few people from ISIS will be there to represent the interest of security in Ubuntu’s future development and hopefully moving improvements like GCC proactive security measures, encrypted LUKS partitions, and main inclusions of Seahorse and gaim-otr up to a higher development priority. If you’d like to join us add your name to the RSVP list and we’ll see you there (it’s free!).

This is a little late (registration is over), but no less than 7 of us are going to ShmooCon in Washington DC this March 23-25. If you were lucky (and smart!) enough to get a ticket, we’ll see you there!
