InfoSec is the UK's largest IT security trade show and the great and the good from the industry are converging on Olympia for three days to address strategic and technical security issues.

Traditionally this is one of the livelier shows of the year. Two years ago off-duty police arrested a notorious hacker they bumped into by accident.

This year representatives from the government, such as Lord Harris of Haringey, members of high tech police units from around the world and industry leaders like Microsoft's head of platform security will be making an appearance.

vnunet.com will be on the ground at the show bringing you the news live and updating readers on conference action in the Security Watchdog blog.
