Microsoft kicks off involvement at RSA US Conference 2008
With less than a week until RSA Conference 2008, I want to kick off the Microsoft RSA 2008 site and invite you to come back here frequently during the event to share our viewpoint of RSA this year.
As we have been in the past several years, Microsoft will be very active at the security conference with a Keynote by Chief Research and Strategy Office Craig Mundie and 12 track sessions involving Microsoft people.
I will be attending RSA and am planning to be very active in providing updates and information from the show itself, publishing to this site as well as my own blog at http://blogs.technet.com/security. While of course, you should be subscribing to my blog, you might consider coming back to this Microsoft RSA 2008 information page for the duration of the conference, as it will be featuring not just my content, but the RSA-related content from other Microsoft security people and partners.
Here are some of the types of content that I have planned for RSA:
- Commentary on (some of) the keynotes. I plan to attend the keynotes and share my thoughts on whether anything new and interesting was said or if it was old hat.
- Walking around video Q&A. Each year, there are a few "themes" that seem prevalent at RSA (remember the "year(s) of PKI"...) This year, I plan to talk to people at the conference and see what their impressions are and share them with you, firsthand.
- Spotlight on new security technology and companies. RSA is sometimes the first look for emerging security technologies. I'll see if I can track down some of the contenders and get a demo of them so we can share and discuss.
- Your content. Yes, if you blog or want to write something that relates to Microsoft and the RSA conference (or security), you can use this form to contact me to discuss.
In addition to the above content, you will be able to quickly find more detail about any key security-related announcements that Microsoft may make during RSA. Also, please check out http://blogs.technet.com/security/archive/2008/04/01/countdown-to-rsa-conference-2008.aspx. where I will be blogging during the conference and adding additional information.
I hope to see you there.
Best regards,
Jeff Jones
