Certified Ethical Hacker Eric Knight to Present at ISACA North America and Air Force Systems and Software Technology Conferences
BOULDER, Colo., May 3, 2011 – LogRhythm, the company that makes log data useful, today announced that senior knowledge engineer and certified ethical hacker Eric Knight will discuss at two leading industry conferences this month methods for using hacking techniques and SIEM technology to discover security risks and exposures. Mr Knight has been invited to speak at ISACA’s North America Computer Audit, Control and Security (North America CACS) Conference and the US Air Force Systems and Software Technology Conference.

This is what I will be demonstrating in these hands-on presentations.”
