Next meeting – Tuesday, December 11, 2012

Two Factor Authentication

Michael Tiller will give a presentation on his thoughts and experience involving two-factor authentication.  He’ll discuss a couple of different ways that two-factor authentication can be used to help reduce the risk of having your sensitive information and/or accounts compromised.  Dr. Tiller was the head of IT for Emmeskay, a Plymouth based engineering consulting company.  He’s currently the President of Xogeny, a local engineering software company.  He’s been using Linux since version .95 ;-)

OAuth

OAuth, the Open Authorization standard, provides a way for users to share their information across websites without divulging their password to those sites. Will Fuqua will discuss what OAuth is, how it works, and how you can use OAuth in your own apps to interact with popular sites such as GitHub, Google and Twitter.

And we’ll also have our normal MUG meeting features: Jobs Looking For People, People Looking for Jobs, news and events, and much much more.

Hope to see you there!
