Finally, spring is here. We have few exciting events planned for you.

The success of Identity Theft panel presentations held on Feb. 28 has prompted us to plan for a one-day summit, to address various key issues in details. A small show case of products and services will be held in conjunction with the summit, followed by a networking evening.

We are also participating in various shows this spring. Please let us know if you wish to help-out at our booth at these shows.

Have you considered getting accreditation for your experience? Application and Information session at the Linux show on April 26.
