SSH Communications Security (HEX:SSH1V) today announced that SSH Security Applications Engineer Chad Scott has been selected to speak at the 5th Annual New York State (NYS) Information Security Conference in Albany, New York. Scott’s presentation,"Trials and Tribulations of Securing the Wireless Internet," will be held on April 10 at 1:00 p.m. in the Convention Hall of the Empire State Plaza.

Scott will address the latest trends and technologies affecting the creation of a secure wireless Internet for state and local government agencies. Such wireless technologies include Bluetooth, 2G, 3G and WAP, which have yet to enjoy widespread adoption due to interoperability, scalability and performance issues. The presentation will address the development needed for these technologies to reach their full potential.

Scott is on the IT support team in the US and provides pre-sales support for SSH’s award-winning Secure Shell software. Prior to joining SSH, Scott worked as a consultant at Appropria, Inc., where he managed the integration and deployment of a multi-client VPN system. Before that, he held product marketing and services engineering positions at both Kinecta Corporation and Lucent Technologies, Inc.
