Hello everyone,

We’re back! A new school year is starting and that means a new batch of ISSessions. This Friday, September 14th will be our first meeting of the year and we’re happy to say that we have a speaker lined up for you.

Following our usual news roundup and discussion, John will be giving his annual Welcome to InfoSec talk. John is a graduate of the program and is a Vulnerability Researcher at Trend Micro. He’ll be speaking about the wide, wide world of InfoSec, and how to survive the program! It’s a great talk, especially if you’re new to the program, so you don’t want to miss it!

We’d also like to take a moment to welcome everyone back for another year. You guys help make ISSessions what it is, so we’re very happy to have you back.

That’s it for now, we hope to see you out there,

-ISSessions
