What we’re about
This group is for people interested in all things InfoSec.
We'll meet monthly, socialize regularly and network extensively.
I created this group because I know there are plenty of us (security pros and people interested in infosec) in the Hamilton area and we lack a way to get together, talk shop and share our knowledge on a regular basis.
Whether you are a seasoned pro, a newbie (students and life-long learners are all welcome) or someone in need of security services (business owners, CEOs, CIOs, etc.), you are all encouraged to attend.
Get togethers are held the second Monday of each month (except when a holiday interferes, in which case we'll shift one week before or after accordingly).
Speaking suggestions: We are always looking for interesting speakers and topics. If you have something in mind, please send a note to toddhdow@gmail.com with subject line "InfoSec Hamilton - speaking suggestion".
