Tuesday 3rd April 2007
6.00pm - 8.00pm
(Doors open 5.30pm for a light buffet and refreshments)
Technium CAST
Parc Menai, Bangor
Guest speaker: Andy Harbach
It is essential that businesses and individuals keep up to date with security threats related to developments in technology. Andy Harbach of Snowdonia IT Services considers some of the findings of the
Information Security Breaches Survey of 2006 and highlights preventative measures such as policy development.
One of the most significant developments this year has been the release of Windows Vista. Andy will review some of the major security features of Windows Vista and will then briefly examine how
to protect a Linux server and a secure network topology based around a Linux firewall.
About the speaker:
