My next travel for speaking is to the SpeechTEK conference in New York, August 2-4. I’ll be there as part of the Voxeo presence staffing our booth, attending sessions, etc. I’ll be speaking on Monday, August 2nd, at 4:15pm in a session entitled “Security: Keep Your Data and Software Safe“.

I am admittedly a bit amused by the description the SpeechTEK folks wrote for the panel:

As applications move into the multichannel and interconnected world, what are the security concerns you need to consider? Aaron Fisher enumerates the best practices for information security with speech applications and the benefits of tuning in a secure environment. Dan York, author of the bestselling book The Seven Deadliest Unified Communication Attacks, will discuss the major risk areas of unified communications, what steps you can take to mitigate/reduce those risks, a checklist of questions to consider in your implementation, and a look at the future in an increasingly interconnected and converged network.

I’d certainly love Seven Deadliest Unified Communications Attacks to be “a bestselling book” … and perhaps it will be at some point… but I also do realize it is targeted at a rather niche audience.

In any case, I certainly do appreciate their promotion of the book and I’m looking forward to speaking at and attending the event. If you are going to be down there, or want more info, you can visit the Voxeo event page for contact info and a discount code. I expect I’ll be uploading my slides to my Slideshare account after the conference is over.
