SOURCE Barcelona 2011 Wrap-Up
The conference SOURCE Barcelona 2011 is already over. Waiting for my flight back to Belgium, it’s time for my wrap-up! This year, an OSSEC training was initially scheduled with my friend Wim Remes but it was cancelled due to the lack of registrations. It looks that “defensive” security trainings do
Quick ISSA-Be Meeting Wrap-Up
Quick wrap-up about the last ISSA-Be chapter meeting… Wim Remes (@wimremes) was on stage to speak about visualization and his project to join the (ISC)² board.

RSA Conference Europe 2011 Wrap-Up
This is my wrap-up of the last RSA Conference which occurred in London. As usual, it’s a mix of t-shirts and ties. But, vendors followed the rules of the game and came with less promotional material for their next-top-ultra-last-generation-solution-to-beat-all-hackers-from-outer-space. As usual, the first half-day was dedicated to keynotes with great

23:10… Still Working? No, I’m a volunteer!
Monday 23:10… Back from holidays, it was my first day back at work. My day job is over but I’m still online in my dark room with only the noise of some fans, the light of my laptops / monitors and the typical keyboard “clicks”… My wife comes in: “Hey,
Hack in Paris 2011 Wrap-Up
Yesterday, I went to Disneyland Paris! Not for a family trip but to attend a security conference. Great place isn’t it? Everybody knows the Disney park but the nearby hotels propose facilities to organize events. That’s what did Sysdream, the organizer of Hack in Paris 2011. I left home very
