An Information Security Place

There is a site out there called CitySec where security professionals all over come together to plan gatherings for information security professionals in their individual cities.  These are not conferences.  They are just ways of sitting own with other security professionals to burn off some steam and network.

Anyway, I am going to start putting an effort towards getting a gathering in Houston, TX.  Each one of these gatherings have individual names (Boston gathering is called BeanSec, Phoenix is called SunSec… you get the idea).  There was a thread started on it before I going down this path, and they wanted to call it HoMeSec (Houston Metro), but there has been no responses lately.  So unless those individuals have any issue with it, I am going to rename it to BayouSec (Houston is known as the Bayou City).  I was going to call it SpaceSec since Houston is also called Space City for NASA, but I thought any security professionals that one day end up on a moon colony might take issue.

So, if you live in the Houston Metro area and would be interested in taking part, let me know.  I am not promising this will be done in the next couple of weeks, but I am going to put some cycles towards getting it done in the next couple of months.  Let me know if you have some ideas and want to help out.
