Topic

Dr. Chris Roberts (Keynote)

Virtual Security – Is It Real?

A discussion on virtualisation, security issues and security architectures to address those issues.

Chris Hails - Cybersafety & Security Consultant, NetSafe

Can we Save Everyone?

The internet landscape has matured but end users are still falling prey to viruses, malware, fraud and scams.  What is being done to educate people and how can we save everyone from cyber criminals when the type of threats used are constantly evolving?  We'll look at NetSafe's Scam Machine website, the Online Reporting Button and activities planned for a new National Cyber Security Initiative.

Ross Hughson - Director of Personal Information Management Ltd (PIM)

Security - A Perspective From The C-Suite

Insight into the view of security from an organisational perspective, describing how it is not just about the technology, but about the process and most importantly people. Security is also about policy, risk management, physical security and it is being able to sell your story to get the funding required to protect your organisation, including insight into security thinking at a national level.

Andy Prow – Director Aura Information Security

Security Education - Rubber Hits the Road, but the Hand-Brakes are on!

Aura InfoSec performs IT Security training across the corporate and government sector. Our experience shows that we're getting real success and the rubber is hitting the road from educating the people at the coal-face; the developers, admins and general staff. We're get traction in educating the executive and senior management teams on the high-level business risks.  However that there is another audience we need to focus on where the hand-brakes are definitely on...

Graeme Neilson – Lead Security Consultant & Researcher, Aura Information Security

Out of the Box Security…

Covers the real risks of supply chain insecurity and what should you be considering when looking at core devices such firewalls, IDS/IPS and WAFs? How would you recognise and defend against a pre-rootkitted security appliance?"

Philip Whitmore - Director KPMG Security Advisory Services

DEFCON 1 - The Top 10 Security Issues being faced by New Zealand Organisations

Are we getting any better at securing our systems?  Are we adapting to the changing threat environment?  This session will provide a real-world empirical look at the Top 10 security issues being faced by NZ organisations, and let you draw your own conclusions.

iPhone? Android? Skype?  A Look at the Devolution of Security within Modern Telephony

Our use of telephony is rapidly changing.  Technologies such as Skype are making communication easier, while smartphones provide us ready access to the information we need, wherever we are.  While the benefits are easily understood, the risks of the changing face of telephony are generally overlooked.  This session will provide a snap shot of the security related risks presented by iPhones, Android phones and the use of Skype.

Geoff Owen – Manager, PricewaterhouseCoopers Forensic Services

Anyone Got a Pen - Has the Concept of Fraud Really Changed?

A discussion of fraud using case studies to provide a pragmatic look at how things could have been different.  In today's increasingly complex business environment, companies face numerous challenges and risks - often when they can least afford to deal with them.  The ever-growing use of the Internet and fully automated accounting systems and electronic funds transfers has dramatically increased the likelihood of corporate fraud. Equally, and by its nature, the amount of electronically stored evidence is also growing at an identical rate.

Colin Slater - Director Security & Technology, PricewaterhouseCoopers

New Horizons - Emerging Trends in Security

A discussion of some of the recent trends being seen in information security, including those relating to virtualisation, IP enablement, storage and "bring your own" devices.  What is actually going on in these spaces and what does that mean for the macro issues we will face in 2012 and beyond?

Adrian Hayes - Security Consultant, Security-Assessment.Com

Encryption - Security’s Silver Bullet?

Encryption is often sold as the cure to all your security woes.  Vendors talk about military grade encryption and policy makers mandate it's use, yet most people don't understand even the basics.  This presentation will explore the limitations of encryption and highlight some cases where encryption has failed to live up to the hype, including the latest attack on the encryption commonly used to secure your Internet banking session.  Is encryption security's silver bullet?
