From an end-user point of view, Open Group Security Program Group meetings provide several benefits: face-to-face interaction with leading architects from major vendors, an understanding of latest developments, events and future directions in the area, and an opportunity to share experiences with other companies and influence open standards.

Hal Wilson, Vice President & General Manager, Litton PRC
The Open Group provides a forum that addresses the issues that organizations need to hear about. Not only that, we get information on approaches that we can take away and apply.

Nick Price, Group Technical Architect, The Dairy Farm Group
The depth of understanding and the willingness to share experience and expertise makes The Open Group meetings a "must go" in my calendar.
