Next Minnesec Meetup is 10/2

2007-09-18T09:35:00.000-05:00

Twin Cities security geeks will convene at The Local, in Minneapolis, on 10/2, which is a Tuesday at 6 pm. This is the second Minnesec security meetup. We will find a location along the right hand side windows toward the back. If you don't know what a CitySec is - it is a peer to peer meetup: to hang out with local security pros and talk shop, network.

First MinneSec meeting is Thursday

2007-07-24T21:59:00.000-05:00

The first MinneSec meetup for security geeks is this Thursday, July 26 at the Local downtown Minneapolis. Informal and informational, not sales-y and market-y. As with other CitySec's, you will not be expected to pay dues, “join up”, present a zero-day exploit, or defend your dissertation to attend.
