This month Aaron Grattafiori will give a presentation on Tor, the
anonymous Internet communication system.
Description:
"Tor is a toolset for a wide range of organizations and people that want
to improve their safety and security on the Internet. Using Tor can help
you anonymize web browsing and publishing, instant messaging, IRC, SSH,
and other applications that use the TCP protocol. I will discuss how it
works (the onion router and Tor), how to install and run it(its easy!),
and how it's a very secure system. I'll also look at the common
criticisms, who needs this kind of technology and why, compare the Tor
network to other anonymous systems, such as anonymizer, and contrast Tor
with traditional proxies. I'll finish up with talking about hidden
services Tor can provide, and allow for questions and comments of course."
Start: 2005/10/11 - 7:30pm
End: 2005/10/11 - 9:00pm
Location:
O'Reilly, Sebastopol, CA
http://nblug.org/genloc
We are always looking for speakers, so if you or anyone you know
would like to give a presentation to a group of friendly nerds please
send an email to speakers at nblug.org . Thank you, and I look forward
to seeing you all there at the next meeting.
Augie.
