Learn From Dr.Bitange Ndemo, Keynote Speaker At AfricaHackOn Conference

If you are interested in knowing how to keep safe in this age of cyber crime, then you are invited to AfricaHackOn, East Africa’s first premier technical computer security conference to be held on 28 February 2014 at PWC Towers, Westlands Nairobi.

This conference aims to bring together the individual talents of the best and brightest security professionals in the region, through live presentations, activities and demonstrations.

The AfricaHackOn conference is entirely independent of any corporate, vendor or organization to be held over twelve hours in a relaxed atmosphere, allowing attendees to enjoy themselves whilst networking within the local information community and expanding their knowledge of security.  Live presentations and activities will cover a full range of defensive and offensive security topics, varying from previously unpublished research to required reading for the security community.

Currently most information security conferences and conventions dwell on the theoretical aspect of cyber security and much less on the practical and tactical angle of the art. This conference will focus on various attack and defence vectors security professionals can apply in their respective organization. The conference will look at real life case studies where most of these attack methods have been propagated.

There will be a 4 hour mini “hackbattle” at the end of the conference to show the various skill set and awards will be given to the winning team
