Impressions of CRESTCon & IISP Congress 2014

CRESTCon & IISP Congress 2014 was a great opportunity for our CEO, Ian Whiting, to catch up with industry friends, meet lots of attendees who are keen advocates of our products, as well as speaking to several exhibitors who are also users of our software including HP, Ernst & Young, Nettitude, GDS and BT.

The exhibition was a good opportunity for us to provide inofsec professionals with a preview of some new major features soon to be releases in Nipper Studio. Our stress ball giveaway also proved quite popular with the pentesters – it seems they are a stressed bunch, who would've thought?

But instead of just giving you our own opinion of how the show went, this post brings together the views of those who attended, exhibited and kindly expressed themselves via the live news stream – Twitter.

Andrea Simmons from HP also highlights in her presentation the amusing results of a much-debated 'study' by VoucherCloud

Selex ES steered people towards 'their very own' Robin Frewster security expert:

... and here's the consensus.

'Fuzzing' with Andy Davis of NCC Group:

Finally, our own team - Ian Whiting below - shares a word, and a stress ball, with Gotham Digital Science



Hope this has inspired you to book tickets for next year's event. The CRESTCon & IISP Congress is definitely the right place to be for any infosec professional; whether beginners or more experienced, the conference has something to offer everyone.
