Tony Stieber, Encryption Architect for a local Fortune 500 company will be speaking on Encryption and Web Application Security - How NOT to implement encryption - March 31st. Tony Stieber is very knowledgeable about encryption and Information Security. It is a real honor and a privilege to have him speak in our group. If you have questions about encryption, He is the person to ask. Rohyt Belani from Intrepidus Group will be speaking on Phising 2.0 April 24th. Rohyt has talked in Minneapolis at the ISSA meeting a few months a go and generated so much feedback we had to ask him to come back for OWASP :)
