At least eight security experts who had signed up for the RSA 2014 security conference to be held Feb. 24-28 have publicly pulled out. They include F-Secure Chief Security Researcher Mikko Hypponen and Taia Global founder and CEO Jeffrey Carr, who is also founder of the Suits and Spooks conference. The departures are part of the backlash within the cybersecurity community against the RSA reportedly accepting $10 million from the NSA in exchange for embedding a flawed random number generator into one of RSA's Bsafe security products.
