Over the last few years, the FIRST conference program has been evolving in order to help CERT teams and corporations around the world keep abreast of the threat landscape and to enable corporations to share their information in a secure environment (what is said at FIRST remains at FIRST).
As a result the 2009 program has further evolved to include some exciting new features based built on the innovations of the last few FIRST conferences.
Here are some of the last few years' innovations (apologies if I haven't mentioned them all - as I know the folks at FIRST work very hard on a voluntary basis to bring you many of these features):-
- Podcasts and continuous news updates for people haven’t managed to attend the event and to update the world wide community about some of the fun goings on at FIRST.
- Vendor evening (fondly known as beer and gear for the free well....beer and gear such as T-shirts, I guess).
