If you want to build out a kit of commercial security tools, bring a big bank account to pay for it. Not only that, you'll find that there are still gaps in your setup that need to be filled. What do you do if you have a finite budget (who doesn't?) or have no budget? Does testing your security require a fat wallet? Fortunately, no.

In this presentation I'll go over a number of open source security tools, what they do and where you can get them. Individual tools will be discussed as well as Live CDs which have a collection of the tools all together.

About the presenter

Jason Wood (JW Network Consulting)

I've been a systems administrator for about 9 years and have an interest in information security. At the day job I manage security for my employer. I'm slowly moving my consulting practice in the direction of security as well. My two major points of focus are on web application security and forensics.
