Today Laura and I popped down to Infosecurity Europe 2012 in London Earl Court to meet with some old friends and potential partners. Infosecurity Europe is one of the biggest information security events in the world. We think its a great platform to build relationships and demonstrate our service capabilities.

Stay tuned; we will bring something exciting to Infosecurity Europe in 2013.

This year again we were at Black Hat Abu Dhabi 2011 and had an amazing time. We met old friends and made great new ones. There were some very interesting briefings. My favourite presentation was by Barnaby Jack of McAfee. He gave a very interesting talk on hacking insulin pumps. He explained the steps required to gain access to the hardware and assembly code through RF. Barnaby created an exploit which can reveal the unique serial number of insulin pump and then allow him to either dispense insulin or suspend the device. Dispensing too much insulin in a person through this exploit is a real threat resulting in death.

After the conference we went on a desert safari. Evening with friends doing dune bashing, sand-boarding with arabic buffet and entertainment was perfect.

Although being runner-up sucks, we decided to let the world know that Tranchulas Cyber Ranges was named as runner-up at P@SHA ICT Awards 2011 in Security Application Category. Now in its 8^th year, the P@SHA ICT Awards is flagship ICT industry event.
