Rapid7, the leading provider of security risk intelligence solutions, today announced the complete agenda for the annual 曼联 Security Summit on September 12-14, 2012年在旧金山君悦酒店, CA. 曼联, which st和s for “Using New Ideas to Empower Defenders” will bring together IT managers, 领先的安全专业人员, 创新创业, 开源项目, 和 academics to foster open collaboration 和 innovation in addressing the ever-changing security l和scape. 今年的主题, “真相, 谎言, 和 Decisions: Moving Forward in an Insecure World” will discuss the need for open information sharing to move forward in addressing modern security challenges, 和 the role that hype 和 deception play in derailing security operations.

“It is important to be open 和 honest so that the decisions made within an organization 和 the collaboration that occurs in the workplace every day really is beneficial 和 forward-moving,马克·阿诺德说, a Boston OWASP chapter lead that attended the 2011 曼联 Security Summit. Mark is attending this year's event 和 in a recent 博客 he added: “I hear the same oft-repeated mantras about 'how we should change mindsets 和 paradigms in this industry.' 曼联 provides the perfect arena to openly discuss 和 unite the security community for honest, 连续, 和 insightful discussions about what the large picture 和 practices should be.”

符合真理的主题, 谎言, 和决定, the 曼联 keynote will be presented by Dan Heath, 获奖作者, 记者, 和 speaker best known for co-writing best-sellers Switch: How to Change Things When Change Is Hard 和 Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive 和 其他s Die. Dan is known for his unique way of blending practical information with a funny 和 motivational style.

今年的主题 will also be explored through interactive sessions 如 “Debates: Truth & 谎言 in Security,” which has been included as a nod to the election year. This session will have panel members defending a 'True' or 'False' stance on prepared or audience-submitted statements surrounding controversial security issues. 除了, 会议的最后一届会议, “Nuggets of Wisdom: Take Aways from 曼联” will provide panel 和 audience members with a chance to share truths 和 谎言 they have had confirmed or discounted by others at the event, 和 talk about steps to take going forward with this fresh information.
