"The fine art of telephone surveillance and how to detect it, distilled
into a two-hour lecture by one of the nation's top technical
counter-surveillance experts. Ever wonder if someone's listening in on
your calls? Maybe that phone on your desk has been turned into a bug
that sends your enemies anything you say nearby -- regardless of whether
you've picked up the handset or not. Drawing on 20-odd years' experience
hunting bugs and finding security leaks for governments and major
multi-national corporations, Mr. Atkinson will cover both highly
rigorous and somewhat more practical ways of frustrating spies and
thinking about physical security.

The talk will be 2-3 hours followed by a Q&A session. While it will
certainly cover sensitive information, everything is unclassified -- so
we're making it open to the public.

It's at 3pm on the 27th, in room 1-190 on the MIT campus. RSVP to
<eric.s..._at_gmail.com>."
