Mobile Phone Worm and AusCERT Conference

Date: 24 January 2008

Greetings,

This week saw AusCERT issue two alerts: Radiator 4.0 was released and
Citrix Presentation Server had a serious flaw patched. Other than those
the main item of note was the Symbian worm that is reportedly spreading
via MMS and Bluetooth (https://www.auscert.org.au/render.html?it=8685).

At AusCERT you can tell when the AusCERT Conference is coming up. People
start running around more, meetings on most days, and new logos and
pictures to look at. Well it has started. The conference wind-up is
underway. A very calm start, only a few more missing people (at meetings)
and questions about which this and which that looked better.

So if you are like me and leave everything to the last minute, I thought
I would give you a subtle (or not so subtle) reminder that there are 3
months left until the end of early registrations.

While we're on the topic of reminders, there is still a chance to register
for the Web Infrastructure Security on UNIX training course which runs in
Sydney on the 6 and 7 of February 2008.

I hope you all have a good Australia day weekend. I hope to. I will be
heading out to the beach, so if anyone calls and hears waves in the
background, just think about how much fun I could be having.
