The J.D. Falk award 2013

M3AAWG awarded the second J.D. Falk award today in Montreal. The winner was Gary Warner from the University of Alabama.
Gary has been involved in fighting abuse and online crime since the 1990s. He developed the Center for Information Assurance and Joint Forensics Research at the University. This is an education program that not only teaches students about online threats and how to fight them, but collaborates with both industry experts and law enforcement.
You can check out Gary at his blog or on twitter.

Back, still catching up

We’re back from MAAWG, but somehow I’ve not managed to catch up with everything from last week enough to have time to get back into the swing of blogging. I do have lots and lots of things to say, just not quite enough hours in the day to get them down on paper.
It was great to meet so many blog readers. I really appreciate each and every one of you that introduced yourselves and told me you read the blog. Not many people comment, so I don’t have a good feel for the number of readers. Hearing from readers was great!
MAAWG itself seemed lower key than it has been in the past, but I really think the organization is getting good work done. I strongly recommend people who haven’t been before to visit. There’s lots of great information about messaging, filtering and abuse prevention. They even have a new name! M3AAWG. (Messaging, Malware and Mobile are the 3 Ms)
