in2securITy - What we did last year and other mad ideas <strike>for world domination</strike>

Presented at Kiwicon 6: The Con of the Beast (2012), Nov. 18, 2012, 3:15 p.m. (15 minutes).

Twelve months ago, Brett Moore lamented future of NZ security. "Oh where is the next generation" he cried (well he asked in his serious voice while drinking beer). Eleven months and three weeks ago, beer was consumed, the future discussed and ideas were laughed at. Eleven months, two weeks and six days ago, hangovers were nursed, realisations occurred and planning began. One website, 40 articles, 5 writers, 185 members, 18 mentoring pairs, 15 + videos and a 200 person national tour later... and we may have created something a little bit special. In this talk, Laura will showcase what in2securITy is, why it exists and what it has acheived in the past 12 months. If that isn't enough, she will also share the vision of in2securITy in the 12 months to come, what we will achieve for NZ, what we need to get there and why you won't want to miss a second of it.


Presenters:

  • Laura Bell / ladynerd as Laura "ladynerd" Bell
    "A shy and retiring wall flower..." is one of the many phrases that have never been used to describe Laura. Since moving to NZ in 2011, she founded and runs in2securITy as well as working as a security consultant for Lateral Security. She knows what free time and hobbies are, she read about them in a book somewhere. It had a lot of pictures.
