SensePost trains in Spain.

Hey everyone. We will once again be presenting our BootCamp training course at the BlackHat Europe Conference. It seems this is a quiet year in terms of training sessions so I guess everyone is starting to feel the pinch of the present economic climate. Nevertheless we have committed to being in Barcelona so we’re going for it anyway. It will be the first time we are training in Spain, which…

So long.. and thanks for everything..

Considering how freely i’ve ranted on our blog over the past few years i found it incredibly hard to to write this post.

80 minutes to Apples Tablet..
