I attended T2 in Helsinki Finland, it rocked! Seriously. I’d like to thank Tommi and Jussi for being hospitable as always and to express my gratitude for the large amounts of salmiakki that they *forced* me to drink.

A Day in the Life of a Hacker (Adam Laurie) was a brilliant talk, it was the right level of techy hacker l33tness and humour. Great for hotel phun and games, and free pr0n ;)

Now you see it, Now you don’t - Obfuscation for fun and profit! and Solving the T2'08 Challenge (Nishad Herath)  were two very technical and interesting l33t talks, Nishad is an excellent presenter and a very skilled guy. Some of his insights and predictions for malware and custom trojan code evolutions are very worrying. Especially as I would regard him as one of the best reverse engineers I know and he doesn’t believe there is a solution to some of the issues raised!

Definitely a con that is worth checking out in 2009. Finland is a great place and the con is a very personal, small and friendly affair, a breath of fresh air compared to the more commercial options ;)
