On July 19, 1998, Wietse Venema received the Security Summit Hall
of Fame Award "for most significant contributions to Internet
security."
The Security Summit was an invitation-only conference, organized
by Loretta Cheswick and Dan Farmer, and located in the home of Bill
and Loretta Cheswick on July 17th-19th, 1998, in Bernardsville, NJ,
USA. About 30 world-famous people spent three days in discussions
and presentations.
The award is a bronze-colored statue of about 30 centimeters (12
inch) high, on a pedestal of another 45 centimeters (18 inch).
The image on the right-hand side shows the upper portion; click on
the image for a complete view. The statue is in Wietse's office
at work and makes quite a conversation piece.
It's awards like these that make one feel proud and embarassed at
the same time.
