    RSA(R) Conference, the world's leading information security
    conference group, today announced the full list of keynotes for its
    8th annual RSA Conference Europe. The event, taking place from
    22nd-24th October 2007 at ExCeL London, UK, is set to attract
    international industry experts, senior executives, security
    professionals, developers, architects and vendors - and will deliver
    its educational content through keynotes, tutorials, and more than 100
    sessions across 10 tracks.

    Featuring keynote panels for the first time, the RSA Conference
    Europe programme will educate attendees with exciting new sessions:

    A keynote panel, Data Security and Breach Notification
    Requirements: Pros and Cons on Monday 22nd October, will feature
    government and industry experts discussing how government bodies
    around the world have either added or are considering new data
    security and breach notification requirements aimed at protecting
    sensitive information and consumers from the growing global problem of
    online fraud. Speakers, including moderator Marika Konings from the
    Cyber Security Industry Alliance and panelists Marc Rotenberg from the
    Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC); David Smith from the
    Information Commissioner's Office in the UK; and Christopher Kuner
    from Hunton & Williams will discuss effective ways to make progress --
    ranging from increased notification requirements and security
    safeguards to a more hands-off approach and industry self-regulation.

    The second keynote panel, on the last day of the Conference -
    Pandora's Box: Youth and the Internet - will discuss the Internet's
    immeasurable impact on the sexual exploitation of children. The panel
    of experts, including John Carr from the National Children's Homes;

    Chief Security Advisor at Microsoft Corporation; and social networking
    site Bebo's Chief Security Officer, Dr. Rachel O'Connell will - with
