Under the microscope were Dror-John Roecher and Michael Thumann since they spoke about Cisco in their "NACATTACK" presentation. Cisco wasn't tearing up conference material and we learned that they just had a pleasant conversation with the authors. Some change from the 2005 incident with Michael Lynn from ISS where Cisco acted like a bully. Lessons learned!



For all of you that are eager to get more knowledge I suggest you the material that was presented at Black Hat. Keep in mind that it does require quite a bit of advanced knowledge.




If you need credits towards a certification, you'd be glad to know that ISC2 credits are available to everyone that attends. The large growth in the number attendees (from 300 to around 450 this year) and the high quality of the presented material, Black Hat Europe is proving to be the best event of its kind in this part of the world. If that's not enough, the Google folks with the "Hiring Squad" T-shirts should be enough for anyone having the skills and looking for a high-profile job offer.
