The Jordan Open Source Association holds a meeting with computer security hacker and TOR Project developer Jacob Appelbaum.
About Jacob Appelbaum:
- Computer security hacker.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacob_Appelbaum) - Working on the open source TOR project. An application that provides secure anonymity on the Internet. Used by US Military, cyber-dissidents and business executives.
(http://www.torproject.org/) - Had a famous research about Cold Boot Attacks.

Good Questions:
- How can Internet anonymity be effective by thwarting network traffic analysis? How US Military, Cyber-dissidents and business executives can protect privacy and hide sensitive communications on the Internet?
- How a "cold boot attack" can be performed? Can encryption keys be retrieved from a turned off PC from data retained in RAMs?
