Before You Know It, Well Be Seeing You at RSA Conference
2017
Friends,
This coming RSA Conference 2017 has moved up another month and
will take place in San Francisco between February 13 and 17 at the
th
th
Moscone Center – the “Big Top” of information security. Each year,
we’ve seen the conference grow in size – with an anticipated 30,000
attendees this year. Now is the time to make all of your travel
arrangements. We’ve found that AirBnB, Expedia, Travelocity, Orbitz,
Trivago, Kayak and Priceline are very helpful to get there and then
when you arrive, make sure you have Lyft or Uber app installed so
you can easily get to and from the event.
I like the theme this year: “Power of Opportunity”. RSA Conference staff wants you to take
advantage of this upcoming opportunity to learn about new approaches to info security, discover
the latest technology and interact with top security leaders and pioneers. The hands-on
sessions, keynotes and informal gatherings allow you to tap into a smart, forward-thinking global
community that will inspire and empower you.
With attacks like the one against Dyn, a botnet sending out 700mb to nearly 1GB of DDoS
traffic, you know we have much innovation to do in cyber security. There should be new and
better ways to ensure the Internet of Things becomes a Secure Internet of Things (SIoT) and
until then, we remain highly susceptible to ‘Internet’ blackouts and outages like your local power
company during a heavy thunder and lightning storm.
To stay one step ahead of the next threat, we continue to look for more innovative cyber
security companies and will have more awards to share during RSA Conference 2017.
Meanwhile, we have found some gems that we’d like you to keep an eye on or consider for your
needs, of the top twenty Cyber Security Leaders of 2016

Here at CDM, we continue to focus on the important areas of INFOSEC to help you be more
proactive and avoid having vulnerabilities exploited, having seen so many breaches lately. So,
we hope you like what you’ll find in this month’s edition of Cyber Warnings. As they say in USA
during this month, it’s “Thanks Giving” and we’re thanking our best and brightest thinkers for
contributing to our knowledge base with some wonderful articles. Please enjoy. Cheers!
To our faithful readers, Enjoy
