[VOIPSEC] Anyone with IM security expertise interested in being interviewed in a SecurityRoundTable podcast Monday night?

VOIPSEC readers,

(PLEASE DON'T REPLY TO ME - posting this for a friend)

The folks over at the Security Roundtable podcast 
(http://www.securityroundtable.com/ ) are looking for a guest to be 
interviewed on this coming Monday night, October 10th, on the subject of 
Instant Messaging security.  It's actually a topic that I would personally 
be comfortable talking about, but since I was just the guest last time 
talking about VoIP Security (http://www.securityroundtable.com/?p=15 ), it 
would be much better to have someone else join the group.  It's a fun and 
fairly loose format.  One guest and four other security professionals 
engaged in a conversation about IM security.

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED, please contact Martin McKeay at 
'martin at mckeay.net'.  The recording is Monday, October 10th, at 6pm 
Pacific/9pm Eastern.  With setup, pre-recording chat, etc., you'll 
probably be on the call for about 60 minutes or so.  As noted below, the 
recording will take place via a Skype conference call.

Regards,
Dan

P.S. Readers in Canada, have a great Thanksgiving long weekend!

night

Dan,

Having someone from the VOIPSEC group would be great!  All I ask is that 
they have Skype and a headset/mic combo or a headset and mic.  Using a mic 
and speakers with Skype leads to some horrible echo.  They should contact 
me at martin at mckeay.net, or they can call me at 707-529-7701 if necessary.

We have some great people in the Security Roundtable, but I don't think IM 
is a specialty of any of us.  Thanks for the offer, I think we'll all 
learn something from someone who's done some in-depth research into the 
security concerns behind IM in the business place.  And it'll give us a 
chance to get in touch with another security professional who has 
something to share. 

Thanks again and have a good time on your trip,

Martin
