The International Cryptographic Module Conference (ICMC24)
GLOBAL LEADERS CONVENE TO COUNTER NEW THREATS, REVIEW CERTIFICATION GOALS

Simultaneously, European regulators are moving forward with a wide range of related cybersecurity standards. Efforts to maintain the security of open-source solutions continue apace. New approaches to entropy are coming, and the promise of homomorphic cryptography lies ahead.

DEF CON 32
Originally started in 1993, it was meant to be a party for members of "Platinum Net", a Fido protocol-based hacking network out of Canada. As the main U.S. hub I was helping the Platinum Net organizer (I forget his name) plan a closing party for all the member BBS systems and their users. He was going to shut down the network when his dad took a new job and had to move away. We talked about where we might hold it, when all of a sudden he left early and disappeared. I was just planning a party for a network that was shut down, except for my U.S. nodes. I decided what the hell, I'll invite the members of all the other networks my BBS (A Dark Tangent System) system was a part of including Cyber Crime International (CCI), Hit Net, Tired of Protection (ToP), and like 8 others I can't remember. Why not invite everyone on #hack? Good idea!

WISP & Google Present 'Tell Your Story' Workshop
Women in Security and Privacy (WISP), together with Google, are proud to present ‘Tell Your Story’- a Workshop that is focused on helping women and under-represented minorities maximize the impact of sponsorship through the power of storytelling.
What is a ‘Tell Your Story’ Workshop?
If you can build your own story that is simple, concise, and - most importantly -repeatable, others can repeat your story for you. This is particularly powerful, so sponsors know what to say about you to their network.
In this in-person two-hour session, you will learn how to craft a strong story to boost your career development - and learn about the power of sponsorship and why it's so important for getting ahead.
Over the evening, you will:
1. Learn storytelling skills and frameworks
2. Identify your own ‘origin’ story that is simple, concise, and repeatable
3. Get real-time and actionable feedback from peers in the group
4. Practice and identify potential sponsors who can elevate your work
'Tell Your Story' receives high ratings from participants, with 94% saying the workshop is worth their time, with facilitators scoring an even higher favorability score of 97% favorable.
Details of the event:
Date: Wed 28th February
Time: 18:00 registrations; workshop kicks off at 18:30
Location: Google London, 6 Pancras Sq, London N1C 4AG, United Kingdom
We begin and wrap the evening with an opportunity to network, mingle, and get to know your Women in Security and Privacy community in the UK!
Let us know if you can make it by registering your interest. We look forward to welcoming you to the Google offices in a few weeks!
“We can become powerful allies by sharing our stories - and spreading the stories of
others.”
