The amount of federal content at RSA goes up and down but I agree this year (like in 2002) there seemed to be a lot - mainly because all those security vendors are looking to see if the government spending will start shoveling money towards security!

Sarah kept it moving pretty rapidly and you all covered a lot of ground. The other thing I noticed about RSA this year (but, it's only my fifth) was the increase in sessions about public sector cybersecurity. It's probably a function of the breaches we've seen in the last year and the "excitement", if that's the right word, about the President's 60 day cybersecurity review. The timing was a little unfortunate, however, as all Melissa Hathaway could say in her keynote was, "We're done, but I can't tell you what we reported...yet."
