““I’ve been MS08-067’ed two years in a row…now what?” Most systems are insecure, not because we don’t know about or understand the vulnerability but because we fail at planning and communicating the solution to address or mitigate the vulnerability. The goal of this talk is to outline small steps that anyone can take to become more project focused on fewer problems and better communicate the results. It’s very easy to let the daily operational stuff consume all of your time and budget, but with a little planning and goal setting anyone can quickly check if they are working on what matter or getting sidetracked by noise. If you are ready to put down the shotgun and become a sniper this talk is for you!”
