For participation, please send your email confirmation to Rajesh of Infosys at [email protected]

Since seats are limited, the participation will be restricted to first 50 confirmations. We had to organize it on a Saturday, due to Melissa’s availability – I’m sure many of you who know about her as expert security speaker, will not see weekend as a constraint to attend. Look forward to meeting you at CIS.
