CERN Computing Seminar

Securing with the OSSTMM 3

Description

The Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual is well on its way of being part of the ISO standard for security and a world-recognized standard in its own right. However many of its concepts are not only new but contradict accepted best practices and the current security body of knowledge. This seminar will show you how this came to be, why it's correct, and how the OSSTMM will allow you to not only find perfect security but also to analyze and measure it.

If there is interest, a second part can be held giving more practical examples, go into more depth, and conduct more Q&A. If you are interested please contact Andreas Unterkircher.

Nicolas Mayencourt is the CEO of Dreamlab Technologies AG, affiliate partner of ISECOM in Switzerland.
