Slides: Does Anyone Really Give a _____ About VoIP Security?

Does anyone really give a (insert favorite profanity) about VoIP security? That was the key question I asked in the presentation I have to the recent 2011 ITT Real-Time Communications Conference. Technically, my talk with titled "The State of VoIP Security", but I decided to have a little bit of fun with it.

It was an enjoyable session and I recorded a video that I hope that I can make the cycles to produce and upload sometime soon.

Meanwhile, the slides for my talk are now online, although given my style they really need audio or video. Still, you can get a sense of what I covered:

The State of VoIP Security, a.k.a. “Does Anyone Really Give A _____ About VoIP Security?"

P.S. If you would like to have me give a presentation like this at an event you are involved with, please contact me. I'm frequently presenting and always open to speaking at new venues.

The State of VoIP Security, a.k.a. “Does Anyone Really Give A _____ About VoIP Security?”


Does anyone really care about VoIP security? Why should they? What are the main issues? At the 2011 Real-Time Communications Conference sponsored by the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT), Dan York spoke about all these questions and gave a view of the overall state of the industry. A video recording of the Oct 5, 2011, session will be available and will be able to be found at http://www.voipsa.org/blog/ when it is ready.

New Github for Mac 1.1 Release Nov 23rd…

GitHubforMac

I just noticed yesterday that a new version of Github for Mac was released on November 23rd. The blog post about the 1.1 release highlights the major changes as:

  • The “Changes” view has been completely redesigned.
  • The ability from the GUI to commit individual lines of code.
  • A “Commit & Sync” feature so that you have just one step to get your code on Github (or wherever it is hosted).
  • Full screen support for Lion.
  • Tracking repositories if they are moved or renamed.

I’ve gone ahead and downloaded Mac for Github 1.1 and am looking forward to seeing how it works.

P.S. And yes, being perhaps old-skool, I mostly use the command line to work with git. But there are times when a GUI is nice, particularly when looking at changes between versions.
