Talk on host security issues.

EVENT SUITABLE FOR ALL LEVELS.

* About the talk:

In today's WordPress world we subcontract the management of our data to multiple organisations which in turn hold our data in multiple locations. This means our data is exposed to an event which impacts any one of those organisations and/or locations. We owe it to our users, whose details we keep in trust, to mitigate the impact of any such event. This talk discusses how we can do that and asks the question.... Are you ready for the Zombie Apocalypse?

Code of Conduct:
WordPress Meetups are for the benefit of the WordPress community as a whole, not specific businesses or individuals. All actions taken as an event organizer are with the best interest of the community in mind.
Membership in the local meetup group is open to all who wish to join, regardless of ability, skill, financial status or any other criteria.
Meetups are volunteer-run with volunteer speakers. In cases where a modest attendance fee might be necessary, this fee should only cover the costs of the meetup and shouldn’t be used to pay speakers or organizers.
Meetup groups allow events to be organized by any reliable/trusted member of the community.
Meetups are welcoming places where everyone works to foster an accepting environment which is free of discrimination, incitement to violence, promotion of hate, and general oaf-like behaviour.
