My company has done this for awhile with a focus on developers and what tools different projects use. I have presented at a LnL on subjects such as email and why it isn't secure. Showed an example of using metasploit to take over a machine with a malicious pdf that got a lot of attention.
I recently presented on firesheep as well and it had a pretty big crowd. It seems like I get the more technical users that show up and not always the people that need to be there. - Matt On Wed, Dec 15, 2010 at 11:03 AM, Tim Krabec <[email protected]> wrote: > I've been thinking of a similar thing.
