Secure360

One week until the conference! 5 things to do while you’re here

May 8, 2013 by Secure360 and UMSA

It’s coming! The Secure360 conference is only one week away. We’re super excited, and with so much stuff going on, we thought we’d highlight for you 5 things to do when you’re here:

Preconference

Can’t wait to get started? The preconference begins Monday, May 13 at 7 AM with registration and workshops at 8 AM and 1 PM. Each session has two workshops to choose from, and with great topics like IT consumerization, managing vendor information and security, business and government continuity plans and privacy, it might be hard to choose.

5K Run/Walk

Secure360 World Run/Walk for ECHO

We know you’ll be getting a lot out of the conference this year, and this run/walk is your opportunity to give something back to the community – and move your legs after your flight! You can choose to do either 5k or 10k, and you don’t even have to run. Proceeds go to support ECHO Minnesota, a multi-lingual organization communicating with Minnesota’s immigrants and refugees about health, safety, civic engagement and emergency readiness.

Keynotes

Targeting Emerging Cyber Threats Through Information Sharing

Internationally known information security and privacy attorney Ron Plesco keynotes on Tuesday, giving us insights on APT’s DDos attacks, mobile threats, botnet take-downs, counterfeit goods and organized cyber infrastructures.

MetaLeadership

Barry Dorn, MD discusses how the public, private and not for profit sectors can effectively work together to make the most of valuable resources by implementing MetaLeadership. Barry is the Associate Director of the Program for Health Care Negotiation and Conflict Resolution at the Harvard School of Public Health and a leader in the development of the negotiation and conflict resolution field.

Break out sessions

We’ve got a number of great breakout sessions on Tuesday and Wednesday during the conference and an Exhibit Hall filled with booths. Here are a few highlights:

Tuesday, May 14

Kellman Meghue, head of security engineering for Check Point Software Technologies Inc. will  be talking about “Weaponized Security.” Find out how the tools used to secure people can be turned against them.

Javadi is currently serving as President of the US group of The Open Organisation of Lockpickers (TOOOL) and is the founder of The CORE Group, a security research and consulting firm. Javadi will discuss the “4140 Ways Your Alarm System Can Fail.” Catch up with him again during the 2 pm break when he’ll be demonstrating how to pick a lock in the Exhibit Hall.

Wednesday, May 15

Learn about the benefits of information security maturity program models and how they are leveraged by CISOs. Mark Carney, Vice President of Strategic Services at Fishnet Security, will be leading the discussion that will include comparisons with other models and a close look at one information security maturity program.

In Minnesota, we can’t help but talk about the weather, especially with the spring we’ve been having! Meteorologist and entrepreneur, Paul Douglas, will be talking about “Tracking Weather Extremes Across the USA” in the ballroom at 12:15. He’ll take a look at trends and long term predictions to help decipher if our weather is getting more severe over time.

See Saint Paul

If you’re not spending every ounce of energy you have at the conference, you should see St. Paul. It’s a great city! Within walking distance from the conference you’ll find two museums: the Minnesota History Center and the Science Museum of Minnesota, currently featuring the Body Worlds exhibit. If museums aren’t your thing, there are plenty of other ways to enjoy St. Paul, but please, excuse our late spring!

What are you most excited for during the conference? Which sessions are you planning to attend? What are you hoping to learn?

It’ll be hard to keep up with everything, so we’ll be live-tweeting during the conference. Keep up with us at hashtag #Sec360. See you there!
