SecureMD #4 – Let’s go to a conference

We had the luxury of attending the MDC3 conference as well as the FST summit. In this episode, we discuss what made these shows a success and what they could work on to make them better.  Interestingly, they both had the same underlying message – the evolution of IT (specifically Cyber Security). Staying on top of the changing landscape, to include the adoption of Social Media &  Cloud Computing, have forced the IT/ Security departments to adapt in order to be successful.
 
This was also our first attempt at live streaming via ustream.
