[Greg Knaddison](http://twitter.com/knaddison) (aka [greggles](http://drupal.org/user/36762)) is the author of ["Cracking Drupal"](https://www.crackingdrupal.com/) talks about some of the [Drupal Security processes](http://drupal.org/security-team) as well as a [Drupal Security White Paper](http://drupalsecurityreport.org/) that was primarily sponsored by [Examiner.com](https://examiner.com) and [Cydeck.](http://www.cydeck.com/home)

Greg also talks about the [CertifiedToRock.com](https://certifiedtorock.com/) website, which analyzes a drupal.org username and gives it a rating from 1-11 based upon the level of participation within the Drupal community. To give some perspective, Greg was handing out hand-knitted Drupal hats to anyone at DrupalCon with a score of 5 or higher. Some of the highest scores are [webchick](https://certifiedtorock.com/u/24967) with a 9, [KarenS](https://certifiedtorock.com/u/45874) with a 10 and the top two scores of 11 for [merlinofchaos](https://certifiedtorock.com/u/26979) & [Dries.](https://certifiedtorock.com/u/1)
