Hi everyone - Some Solaris security developers will be doing a BoF at OSCON in San Jose this week!
8:00pm Thursday, 07/23/2009 OSOSOS - Offering Security in OpenSource Operating Systems Location: Ballroom A3/A6 Moderated by: Christoph Schuba Many operating system security mechanisms are necessary for developers to build secure software. While this session presents a few such mechanisms available and under development in _OpenSolaris_, it primarily seeks the dialogue and discussion how important these features are and how they compare to those of other OSes. Speakers will do short talks on the Cryptographic Framework (Valerie Fenwick), Priveleges (Scott Rotondo) and Zones/TX (Glenn Faden), followed by a panel from all presenters, plus Christoph Schuba and Glenn Barry (Kerberos guru). BoFs are free, you just need to register for the expo pass (also free!): http://en.oreilly.com/oscon2009/public/content/free Hope to see you all there!
