Secure World Expo: My Experience

What is Secure World ? The Secure World is about connecting, informing and developing leaders in cybersecurity.  To see globally, but to defend locally.  They are cyber threats everyday and happen anywhere. 


The Secure World Expo brings vendors and a lot of security and IT companies from all over to share and educate the importance of protecting your company's data and your own personal data as well.     At the expo you can attend classes and listen to their keynotes as well.  There is a show floor also with some demos of software and products from each company if they choose so to demonstrate what they can bring to the table.   As a attendee you could get free stuff and have lunch and even win prizes and attend the after party at the casino.  There were plenty of booths to check out and learn more about each one and their products.

One of the major highlights of the even was seeing and learning from Uber engineer, Dr. Charlie Miller.  This gentleman was the guy that hacked into a jeep unit.  Somehow, found a loop hole into the system to where he was able to control the jeep right from his computer and laptop.  He also showed the different types of chips that are in the vehicle that he hacked.  Which was very interesting to see.  

While we all should know that enterprise security is being disrupted.  Knowing how to identify the indicators that have been compromise.  Privacy and data are a major issue.  Automation is the future we are in now.  Having single sign-on will offer impressive new capabilities to being secured and protected on your network.


So defend your data and become a hackinnator.
