The RSA Conference 2012 (Feb. 27-March 2) will set the security agenda for the year. More than 300 companies are at the expo, but I've picked the 21 stops I'm making while in San Francisco. I've got a heavy dose of mobile device management (MDM) and endpoint protection and virus protection tools on my list, along with a series of cloud service providers that integrate end-user authentication systems with on-premises identity tools. I'm especially interested in seeing how successfully established security players are working mobile, cloud and social technologies into their product portfolios. Along with new announcements, I'm looking forward to seeing presentations about longtime favorite topics including the Verizon Business Data Breach Investigations Report. If you want to follow my "Top 21" at the expo floor, start at aisle 100 and work your way right to aisle 27.
