Please join us on Friday, April 1 in NYC! To celebrate April Fools Day and to highlight mobile phone & digital network insecurities, the Guardian Project and MobileActive.org are hosting "Don't be Fooled", part of the new SaferMobile initiative. This hackday will showcase mobile tools to enhance security, profile GP's open-source tools and feature a room for face-to-face conversations about mobile security.
Do to the intimate size of the venue, we are caping RSVPs at 30: 20 "developers / hackers" who want to learn about developing secure mobile phone services and 10 practitioners who want to root their phones / learn about mobile security. Please put your name here!
