SecurityBSidesSF: Evolution, not just education!

SecurityBSides in San Francisco on March 2nd and 3rd held at Parisoma was an experience that those in attendance will not soon forget. This is not for the reasons of Andrew Hay’s opening slide with his pink dress, but for a community of security professionals sharing and collaborating in a fresh new way from the vendor is king conference that was across town. What makes this conference so very different is the interaction at a granular level that the attendees can have with the speakers and sponsors. Not only are the actual talks much more interactive, but the sponsors who are in attendance can actually interface with the attendees and understand their needs as well as have the opportunity to convey their message in a conversation, not an expo-floor 5 minute pitch.
Some of the talks that were covered over the 2 days of the event are listed here.
