McAfee Executive Breakfast RoundtableCebu Parklane Hotel, Cebu City, Cebu, Philippines
An event that is primarily intended for decision makers of the enterprise on the topics of Cybersecurity,such as Chief Information Officers. This breakfast discussion sponsored by McAfee (a leading software
security solutions company), aims to update and inculcate the importance of paying great attention to
the security infrastructure of an enterprise by carefully describing in detail how infamous security attacks
from a decade back plus a few years were: how were they made, executed, spreaded, evolved and how
the software manufacturers as well as the enterprise responded. Better security practices and
investments in new technology, both hardware and software (of which the sponsor and its mother
company, are engaged in its sale/manufacture) are implied to be prudent, inevitable result and
revolution as a reaction to the ever-changing modus operandi of hackers and the like. Represented the
Institute in behalf of Mr. Marco van den Berg, Chief Information Officer.

Rootcon 7: The Philippines' Premier Hackers' Conference and InfoSec GatheringCebu Parklane Hotel, Cebu City, Cebu, Philippines
With the organizers proudly labeling it as the "annual premier hacker conference" in the country, this
event is a very good venue for people looking to take a peek in having a carreer in the lucrative and
adrenaline rush-inducing Information Security section of the Computer Science/Information Technology
industry. For seven years in a row, ROOTCON has been the go-to event for local and international talents
to present their research with peers in the security industry (Rootcon.org, 2013). People with different
backgrounds, from students, business process outsourcing agents up to white (and creepily) black-hat
proven computer hackers, come to acquaint themselves regarding Cybersecurity in this increasily
electronically-connected generation. Discussions were large in scope, from so technical ones like low-
level coding for testing the penetrability of hardened networks, disassembling complex software to
uncover malicious software, tackling the rise of mobile devices as an area of concern and opportunity, toin-depth legal opinion and Social Sciences-inclined analysis.

learn what UX is and how it can make a difference in company’s products and services. ”
A conference where it was imparted that human experience is essential if not core of business, greatly
shaping how our customers would accept or reject our services or products. Attendees were to attend
one of two workshops relating to the conference’s objectives. One was facilitated by Ms. Whitney Hess, a
User Experience and Life Coach, where she outlined how to build a career on UX.
