The question I asked Rich was regarding smart, hands-on, technical people working in data security research/innovation in the form of usable software/solutions. Besides ones already mentioned such as the work Eric Monti / Matasano did on Extrusion Prevention and David Litchfield / NGSS did with Oracle security. I’d also like to hear more about defense research instead of just vulnerability research.

I think I was trying to get Rich to give up a name of a person working internally at one of the DLP companies. I think he said something to the effect of, “somebody he knows that’s really sharp at Symantec”, but it was kind of mumbled and he was kind of tipsy.

…vindication! Better to be talked about than have to work for a living.

If it weren’t for Mogull, I’d have no social life at all.

I saved some of that special “eau de toilet” for you…anytime you’re ready.

I don’t know how could I forget you Hoff! You were talked about quite a bit last night. I still can’t get over the prison wine. LOL

Obviously just an alcohol-inspired oversight, but you’ve omitted me from that list of people who are “…into data security” like Mogull is…where the hell do you think he gets all of his ideas! ;)

Jeez, what’s it take to get a little attention in this town!?

I’ve bought you drinks before!

…and Newby’s a furriner…he don’t count.

I had a brilliant time - I hope we can all get together again soon.

I think Rich might be a little hungover, hahaha.

Thanks Marcin,

I’m honoured to be included in the same sentence as DG and GP, and the same paragraph as the Mogull Himself. Whilst I can’t get to Phoenix that easily from the UK, I’ve just heard that I’m coming to Vegas at the beginning of Feb for a few days. Anyone in the area?

P.S. Rich missed a call with me today though - I think the fame is going to his head. Remember the people Rich…
