My talk will be continuing my talks from BSidesAustin and BSidesBoston. We are part of an industry that is often seen as hostile and cold. As a result, that mindset is often extended to our community. I'm standing up to show that this is not that case, and in fact, our community rocks out loud.
I have spoken at BSidesBOS and BSidesAustin on being "Young and Restless" in InfoSec. I focus on making a community impact, both for myself and encouragement for others to do the same. I'm a fairly regular blogger for the Security Catalyst blog, and I'm planning/coordinating BSidesDFW.
