(Geneva, Switzerland) NOUVEL Strategies partner Jim Herbeck will be the featured speaker at a SANS Information Security Webcast on May 18, 2pm CET. The topic will be iPhone Insecurity:
The Apple iPhone is rapidly becoming the most popular smartphone in the world. Despite concerns over the security features - or rather, lack of security features - the iPhone has been sold in large quantities to Fortune 100 corporations and government agencies. This webcast discusses the information risks associated with using the iPhone, security features that are available, and why everyone is excited to see the new security features to be released this summer with the next version of iPhone OS.
SANS Information Security Webcasts are web broadcasts, including live audio while viewing presentation slides downloaded in advance. Participation is free, though registration is required. Details can be found at the SANS website.
