Nils to talk about Smart Phone Vulnerabilities
In this talk Nils will demonstrate (read: show nifty exploits) how much trust you can put into your smart phone. The talk will specifically look at two popular mobile platforms: Google Android and Palm WebOS.
t2 staff thinks that in addition to Nils being a rock star (like 'Prince' or 'Madonna') he is extremely talented security researcher. If you would like to see how Palm Pre can be used as a secret bugging device, this talk is for you.
Please see the schedule for details.
