[dc401-l] February Meeting - Dan King - Intro to Pen Testing

[John Duksta]

No last minute trips to do on-site work for Dan this month; he's  
going to give the first in what will be a series of talks on  
Penetration Testing.

Please join us next Monday, Feb 11th at 1730 at AS220 for Dan King's  
talk on penetration testing. Dan is lucky enough to get paid to do  
penetration testing for a living at a leading managed security  
service provider.

"Getting started with penetration testing can be a challenging task.  
Only by using a layered, structured approach can we deal with this  
mountain of data. Quite often new and complex vulnerabilities are  
daunted and difficult to wrap our brain around, but by taking things  
one step at a time, we can slowly pull the layers of the onion apart.

This talk hopes to provide people with a rough structure and a method  
of getting their feet wet. I hope can spark conversation and  
discussion."

As usual, we have the performance space from 1730-1900. The talk will  
start around 1800. Show up early, grab a beer and join in the pre- 
talk socializing.
