WHEN:

   Wednesday, Dec. 5th, 2012 
   7pm-9pm


MAIN PRESENTATION

  TOPIC: Real-World Linux Security
    

  PRESENTED BY:
    Rick Moen,
    recovering sysadmin

  TOPIC SUMMARY:
    Ever wanted to have a gentle, novice-friendly introduction to Linux
    security?  This is your chance.  Speaker Rick Moen is going to start 
    from novice levels only, and give a general and pragmatic guide to 
    Linux security primarily for desktop and casual users who nonetheless 
    would like to have a decent grasp of the basics. 


  ABOUT THE PRESENTER:
    Rick Moen (http://linuxmafia.com/~rick/) is  longtime senior system
    administrator and member of SVLUG's Web Team, who also runs nearby
    Linux user group CABAL (http://linuxmafia.com/cabal/), meeting at
    his and his wife's house in West Menlo Park, and has been fooling
    with various Unixes since the 1980s.  Having formerly been a technical
    employee at several Linux firms (Linuxcare, VA Linux Systems, and
    California Digital Corp.) during decades past, he stresses that it's 
    not his fault and he has an alibi. 


  LOCATION:

    Symantec
    VCAFE Facility
    350 Ellis Street (near E. Middlefield Road)
    Mountain View, CA 94043

    Directions on how to get there are listed at:

POST-MEETING GATHERING:

  restaurant/diner after the meeting:  Frankie, Johnnie & Luigi, Too,

We look forward to seeing you there!
