On my way to Tampere…

March 18, 2009 in misc by Daniel Nyström | No comments

At Arlanda, Stockholm, waiting for my flight...

… and I’m sitting in Arlanda airport reading todays trackbacks (MMN is contemplating the differences between older political parties and the Pirate Party when it comes to open communication, in Swedish).

I’m going to Finland just for the day and will go back this evening. Just work in other words ;)

We had Juan Santana, CEO of Panda Security, visit us here in Sweden last week but I unfortunately missed it as I had a training to attend. He talked about how we’re moving our technology into “the cloud” in order to avoid placing CPU/Memory consuming technology on our customers endpoints, and also mentioned a new product BETA that implements this (Nano).

Got to go to my gate now…

Cheers,

IT-SecurityWorld & Panda Security Days in .FI

February 4, 2009 in work by Daniel Nyström | 2 comments

Panda Security/work related post. This is a personal blog but from time to time I’m posting things that may relate to my employer. More info, read “About this blog”.
Panda Security - www.pandasecurity.com - www.pcm.se
Tomorrow afternoon I’m holding a shorter live demo on MalwareRadar (a corporate scan-in-the-cloud service from Panda) at IT-SecurityWorld in Kista, Stockholm tomorrow, and I’m going to be there for the whole day. Come by and say hi if you’re attending.

My colleagues Sebastian Zabala and Rickard Uddenberg are also going to make appearances during the day and we’ve coordinated our efforts under the phrases “Antivirus, is it really an effective protection?” and “We don’t trust antivirus, do you?”. It’s going to be fun, heh.

I’m also going to Finland next week to participate in the “Panda Security Days” over there, and I’ll be staying in Tampere for two days. This will also be a good opportunity to handle some administrative issues on-site in our Finnish office, so double niceness. The only downside to this trip apart from having to be away from home is that I’ll miss the next “Pirate” meeting here in Stockholm, but I’ll catch up through our blog (Swedish) and Skype channels.

Cheers,

You can always move to Finland, our scandinavian neighbour that does not do mass surveillance of their citizens.

From infopankki.fi:

Citizens of Nordic and EU countries

Nationals of Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Iceland (i.e. the Nordic Countries) can enter and reside in Finland without a residence permit. Also, a work permit is not required from citizens of the Nordic Countries that want to find salaried employment in Finland.

Nationals of an EU or an EEA country can reside, work, practise a profession or study in Finland for three months without any particular procedure involving authorities. You must register your rights of residency if the stay exceeds the duration of three months. See the Info Bank page on the Citizens of EU Member States for more information.

The only downside (apart from leaving your birth country :( ) is their extremely diffuse and hard to understand language ;)

And also, of course, they have their share of strange political issues. Heh.

Cheers,
