This afternoon UK time, Morning time states side I gave a 45 minute webinar with Sentrigo around the subject of Oracle security, particularly around the issues with auditing, hacking and securing an Oracle database. I started out with a 10 - 15 minute demo of how real systems are hacked, this is based on extensive experience with reviewing real systems and the fact that the easiest way in is simply by using default accounts, badly designed features and easy to guess TNS settings. The rest of the slides are based on my two hour master class. The slides for this webinar are now available on my Oracle security white papers page.
This was my first webinar as a speaker, I have done podcasts before so that was good experience. It was enjoyable but slightly wierd to sit in your own office and simply talk into the phone with no reaction or feedback verbally and without seeing anyones face to see recations.

Pete - I attended the seminar this morning, and I have to extend my thanks for a great demo. It was as close to a real world scenario as I have seen in a demonstration in quite some time. I am quite certain, indeed, that we all appreciated your professionalism, candor, and knowledge, thanks a lot for your time. I can imagine the disconnect from your audience was rather odd, however, it went smooth (from the audience point of view)!
