On
June 19th
Leandro Almeida
gave a presentation entitled "
Single Packet Authorization - Increasing the security in SSH" at the
ENSOL
conference in João Person, Brazil. ENSOL is an open source conference that goes by
the title "Freedom in the Extreme", and given that Brazil is
highly supportive of Linux,
I'm sure that it is a good conference. Leandro has posted an English translation of
his slides
here.
It is good to see some additional presentations on the SPA concept at open source conferences,
and Leandro emphasizes the usage of the fwknop SPA implementation to protect SSH.
