Guest

• John Foster ( @dearestleader ) - Mr. Foster has 19 years of technology experience but left technical infosec in 2003 to pursue a career in Compliance and Ethics. He now focuses on bribery & corruption, environmental issues, and other interesting topics, but infosec keeps appearing in compliance and finance. He is an investor with experience in stock, foreign exchange, options, and futures which allows him to see past the data breach hype.
