LAS VEGAS--A panel discussion with Apple employees talking about the company's security practices was canceled by its moderator.
Black Hat founder and director Jeff Moss told ComputerWorld that "it was them talking about security engineering and how they take security seriously. It would have put Apple in a positive light."
