After the shoot came a hearty lunch washed down with some fabulous wine to help the guests digest the presentations from the Sponsors – Kaspersky Lab, Breach and ZyXEL. David Emm from Kaspersky Lab kicked off by talking about current trends with Internet malware and how Kaspersky is leading the way with combating these emerging threats.

Next up was Adrian Jones from Breach who gave an entertaining albeit serious overview of the importance of web application security and explaining where it fits in with the imminent PCI compliance implementation. Last but by no means least was Phil Croxford, James Edwards and Simon Rush from Zyxel, who introduced the guests to ZyXEL and the new ZyWall USG UTM Firewalls.
