Where You Want to Be This Week for 2011-07-25

It’s that time of the week again where do you want to be this week? Now you’ll always know with our “Where You Want to Be This Week” feature, which will tell you about infosec meetups happening in your local area as of Sunday night. If you would like your event listed in our Calendar and in this post, contact us or mention it to @grecs on Twitter.

Only two meet-ups this week but there might be one last minute one added on Wed – CapSecDC – but no official announcement as of yet. In the mean time do join Inno Eroraha as he addresses APT, why these attacks are successfully bypassing existing security measures, ways to detect APT attacks through real-time network- and memory-forensics techniques, current challenges posed by APT, assessing an infrastructure for APT, and steps to build carefully executed defensive measures to thwart these emerging attacks at the ISSA Baltimore meetup.  After an eventful Wednesday, drop by  Slainte Irish Pub & Restaurant where Charmsec will be having their normal meet-up. Anyways without further ado, here are meet-ups for this week followed by next weeks preview……
