KISS Session Topic (6:30PM): Do You Speak SQL? with David Jenne

The volume of digital data is growing rapidly each year and much of that data
is stored in relational databases. Many of these are now available on Linux
platforms. Structured Query Language (SQL) is the primary tool for getting
data into and out of relational databases. In this presentation, David Jenne
will demonstrate the basics of SQL and how it can be used to retrieve and
manipulate relational data.

David Jenne is an Oracle Certified Professional DBA but has also worked with
MySQL. He works as a database consultant and teaches classes in SQL and
database design, development, and administration.

MAIN Session Topic (7:00PM): How to Hack Wireless Networks with John Hamilton

If you use wireless networks, learn why you should be concerned about
security. I will demonstrate a number of the Open Source tools that are being
used to hack into wireless networks. I will also present suggestions on what
you can do to secure your wireless network against these hacks.

Professionally John is a digital IC design engineer for a biomedical company
called Medtronic where he designs integrated circuits using a Linux
workstation. Personally, he's been a Linux enthusiast for about 6 years. John
also volunteers at a local elementary school where a group of people have
created a complete network infrastructure based on Linux. This includes a
wireless network, which is where he gained most of his experience with
wireless networks.
