meeting topic

[Bradley J. Bartram]

Hello All - 

I've been chatting off list with Bob Meyer for a little bit about some 
meeting topics and he suggested I bring it up to the nflug membership in 
general.

I am a security cunsultant.  I specialize in testing, identifying, isolating, 
recommending, and implimenting security related systems for organizations 
large and small.  I have volunteered to give possibly two security related 
talks to the group, one for the newbie covering such topics as basic system 
do's and don'ts after installation, system hardening, and best practices.  
The second topic would be aimed towards the power user and would cover such 
items as encryption, firewalls, ids, etc.

Of course these options are highly configurable based upon the will of the 
group.

As an aside, my organization, Bartram Enterprises is also the sole var / oem 
of Mandrake product in the Greater Buffalo Region and is actively involved as 
a member of MandrakeSoft's SecTeam which is the group which is tasked with 
patching and testing security related updates to the Mandrake family of 
products.

Anywho, the offer's open, so let me know what ch'all think.
