Earlier this year in San Francisco, USENIX hosted their inaugural Enigma Conference, which focused on security, privacy and electronic crime through the lens of emerging threats and novel attacks. We were excited to help make this conference happen and to participate in it.
At the conference, we heard from a variety of terrific speakers including:
- Ron Rivest, Professor at MIT and inventor of RSA, who spoke about the consequences of backdooring encryption
- Rob Joyce, Chief of the NSA Tailored Access Operations organization, who spoke about about defending against state attackers
- George “Geohot” Hotz, Hacker extraordinaire, who discussed state of the art software debugging
