Talks

Hi, there! I'm Conor and I run All Things Auth.

You'll find me speaking at tech events, conferences, and meetups around the country, usually on topics related to keeping user accounts safe from evil doers. Lately, I've been talking quite a bit about two factor authentication (2FA).

Below is a list of my previous and upcoming events with a few testimonials of nice things that folks have said about my talks.

If you were in the audience for any of my talks (or watch the online recording) I would really appreciate your feedback so that I can improve my talks! Just one or two sentences would be really useful and it can be anonymous.

"Conor gave a fantastic presentation on the basics of 2 Factor Authentication at the Secure Shell Meetup/Cloud Security Alliance - Delaware Valley combined meeting. His explanations, visuals, and illustrations of the security, pros, and cons of the various methods, were superb! Even though I consider myself pretty skilled in authentication and authorization, I enjoyed the talk, and subsequent discussion. His breadth and depth of knowledge about the topic was impressive. His willingness to listen, answer questions, and even admit a lack of knowledge in certain circumstances, was even more refreshing! Conor is a great presenter, a knowledgeable professional, and a friendly gentleman. Always a pleasure!"
