InfoconDB

Presented at Notacon 8 (2011), April 15, 2011, 6 p.m. (60 minutes).

In this exciting and fast paced "speed rant",

you'll be dragged from one seemingly unrelated topic to another as

together we try to make sense of the world around us. It's time to set

aside the "inner monologue" in favor of some frank discussion from the

perspective of Infosec geek, hacker, social activist, author, speaker

and parent. Topics include: Visualization In Security, Business

Terminology, Infosec Career Planning, Activism And Risk Taking,

Presentation Skills, Hacker Mythos In 2011, Revenge Of The Nerds And

History, Coloring Outside The Lines, and Why You Should Read Books.

Assuming that there are no computer incidents during the talk,

there'll even be time for a public "Ask Anything"
