Might interest one or two of you:

We are proud to announce the 'Ed Gibson "On The Road"' Events which will
take place mid-September to mid-October 2006 at 5 venues around the country.
The aim of the events are to raise awareness of the issues surrounding
computer security, specifically Organised Crime and Hacking and also to
raise the awareness amongst the Business and Developer communities of
Developer and IT Pro User Groups and how they can help instruct and inform
developers and managers about new technologies and other issues such as
security. 


The headline speaker is Ed Gibson the new Chief Security Advisor for
Microsoft UK.  Ed is an ex-FBI agent and delivers a fascinating talk on his
experiences and views on security in the IT world and how to combat
organised crime on the Internet.  Other speakers from the IT industry will
offer alternative or differing views on computer security and the event will
end with an hour long 'panel discussion' with question and answers.
