I will give a talk titled “Introduction to IT Security”. Many people are interested in the area or see it as the great unknown. This will be the beginning of a series of talks that will take place in TOG covering the area of IT Security and all it’s ups and downs.

I will also be running a Wireless Security Workshop where I will set up wireless networks to be attacked and go through the process of doing so as well as explaining the reasons why the attack works.

The talk is directed towards students considering a career path, people currently employed and looking for something new, or just someone who sees it as something interesting and would like to see what it is really about. I will cover a lot on the night so I will not be going into any great detail or going too low level, but other topics will be covered in greater detail in other talks in the series. I have allocated 1 hour and 30 minutes for the talk but I will not be presenting all the way though. The floor will be open to questions throughout the talk.

For the workshop I will using information that is freely available, some since 2001, I am simply structuring this into a session where I will present an attack, and attendees will give it a go. We will be looking at open wireless networks, WEP and WPA encrypted networks. 4 hours has been allocated for this session. This tutorial is hands on and everyone is encouraged to help one another. Requirements for the session will me mailed to the registered attendees closer to the time.
