Great talk with lots of actionable information

A good talk, but i expected a tad less theory and a lot more practical tips. That said the talk was fluent and fun to follow + i learned new things.

Great talk.

Good content, I learned that there is more involved than I thought. You might want to work a bit on your presentation style though. It could be more lively and articulated. But then again, content matters most.

The content was superb, and also the many examples of all sorts of leaks made it apparent that there is a real need to implement a form of hashing / encryption on your private information stored in the database.

The biggest thing you should work on is knowing not everyone is a English native speaker. Sometimes you were mumbling a bit or speaking a bit fast.
