Black Hat ‘07: Nothing says fun like Vegas in August

Posted by: Dennis Fisher

Information Security Threats

We have a full crew of four reporters (me, Bill Brenner, Mike Mimoso and Rob Westervelt) heading out to Vegas next week for Black Hat and we’ll be filing tons of stories and blog posts from the road. If past years are any indication, there will be no shortage of interesting things to cover. If you’re not headed to the show, be sure to check our special Black Hat landing page frequently for the latest news and after-hours happenings starting on Tuesday. And if you’ll be in Vegas, please stop one of us and say hello. We’ll be the ones with the 1,000-yard stares mumbling something about Blue Pill.
