Bay Area Security User Group

All,

I recently moved from Paris to the Bay Area, working for a company named Wind River where I am responsible for Information Security and currently I try to establish a security group in the bay area. The goal is to provide a forum for experts to encourage discussion and share expertise in understanding the latest trends and security threats facing computer networks, systems and data.

Members should be Information Security practitioners, managers, network administrators, etc.

The meetings are intended to be performed on a monthly basis. The location hasn’t been verified yet but I am looking at hosting the event in Alameda.

The meetings will not be used for solicitation purposes from any vendors. Although, some speakers may be from specific vendors, the emphasis will be on the concepts and solutions and not specific products or services.

Contact me if you are interested in becoming a member and everything is still open for discussions therefore feel free to email me suggestions. Remember: the plan is to establish the possibility to exchange of knowledge and skills among a wide variety of information security experts.
