It's the final ColaSec meetup of 2014 and we're looking to do a little planning for 2015. We've had a good start to the security meetup and want to continue to grow and expand our membership. This is your opportunity to show up and let us know what you want out of this monthly meetup.
We will be meeting Monday, December 15, 2014, at Hunter-Gatherer Brewery on Main Street in downtown Columbia.
We'll also be talking about some of the latest news in infosec, including:
- Sony Hack
- POODLE part deux
- Target liability for last year's breach
Be sure to come out and join us. We would love to meet new information security professionals in the area.
Be on the lookout for our new signs at Hunter Gatherer on the 15th. Just picked them up today and I'm pretty pleased with how they came out:
I've also got some business cards for the group on order, but I don't think they will arrive in time for our meeting on the 15th. :( I promise I'll have plenty to pass out for our first meeting next year.
Also, for anyone who's interested in the source image for the banner and signs above, here you go:
Our next ColaSec meeting will be held at IT-oLogy on October 20th, 2014 at 6:00 PM. We will have pizza, a demo of metasploit & some traffic analysis, a presentation on Google dorking, and a discussion of some of the InfoSec news from the past few weeks (there has been plenty). Adult beverages are welcome, but this is a BYOB event
Please note that parking in the garage at IT-oLogy is free after 5:00 p.m. You can access this garage on Gervais St between Marion and Sumter. There's a foot bridge over into the area where we'll be meeting. Directions will be posted on our website before the weekend.
This looks like it has a lot of potential to be a good movie. Would anyone be interested in going to it as a group when it releases in early January?
ColaSec organizer Adam Twitty had a talk in early September at the South Carolina Information Technology Directors Association conference on incident response. Below is video from that talk, which i shot with my phone. I apologize in advance for the abrupt cuts, I was texted and then called during recording.
This talk was also presented at our September 15, 2014, meetup. We meet every third week of the month at IT-ology. Be sure to join us for our next meetup October 20, 2014.
