First post! Errr, sorry, wrong website.

Thanks for the note. I’ll try to join in. Right now I’m about 1/3 of the way through Security Engineering 3rd Ed, really enjoying it. What an amazing fellow. Feeling the loss.

Inventor of Serpent, and a man with a good head on his shoulders. Rest in peace sir. You were an asset to humanity.

Thanks Bruce, will attend. Only adjacent to security through my job, but I still own two of his books and these bookmarks have travelled with my devices for a good while now:

A wonderful service for a wonderful person. The world has lost a brilliant mind. Thank you for introducing me to his work.

May he rest in peace.
