Pravir Chandra, creator and leader of the project, will be discussing OpenSAMM. For more information on OpenSAMM, visit http://www.opensamm.org/.

Most recently, Chandra was an independent consultant where he worked with clients to build and optimize software security programs. Prior to that, he was affiliated with Cigital as a Principal Consultant where he developed role-based training curricula and led large software security programs at Fortune 500 companies.

Topic: The Future of the Security Industry: IT is Rapidly Becoming a Commodity

More companies are outsourcing their IT infrastructure -- treating it as a service more like electricity, office cleaning, or tax preparation -- and this has profound implications for IT security. Organizational users care less about the technical details of security. Products and services change their focus from the end user to the outsourcer. Industry consolidation results, as non-security IT infrastructure companies seek to bolster their security credentials. Even the profession changes, as jobs move from individual organizations to the outsourcing companies, and in some cases overseas. This talk looks at the future of IT security in a mature IT infrastructure industry.

Bio: (From schneier.com) Bruce Schneier is an internationally renowned security technologist and author. Described by The Economist as a "security guru," he is best known as a refreshingly candid and lucid security critic and commentator. When people want to know how security really works, they turn to Schneier.
