It’s been a large day
Our user group has gone from 0-100 today. Within a few hours we had content on the site and registered users for our first meeting. Thanks go out to AG Research, Mitch Garvis, Microsoft Canada, and you.
As if I wasn’t busy enough, I’m also proof reading AtlSecCon sponsorship material for my good friend Travis Barlow, Founder of the Atlantic Security Conference. If you didn’t attend last year, you need to attend this year.
Hope to see you all on December 12!

Prepare to walk out of this session ready and eager to become your company’s deployment guru!
