Joining ROOTCON 6 #rootcon for the 2nd year in a row

On September 7-8, 2012, ROOTCON 6 dubbed as the Premier Philippines’ Hacker Conference will be held at Cebu Parklane Hotel. Unfortunately, to those who are interested, registration is already closed. Their slots are selling like pancakes and you have to actually grab a slot ahead if you want to be in

I am excited to meet online friends who have proved to be interesting individuals in the field of information security.

Last April, I contributed an article on GMA News about how Pinoy hackers defaced some Chinese websites to show their protest and to get back at the supposedly Chinese hackers who are “bullying” Filipinos in line with the disputes over the Scarborough shoals.

With local Filipino hacktivists on the rise, it is high time for website owners and admins to think about information security and ROOTCON is one good venue to learn from the specialists.

I am looking forward to learn new things and to discuss the recent passage of the Data Privacy Act of 2012 in the Philippines.
