    The goal of DISC 98 event is to create conscience in the community that
    uses computers about security strategies and mechanisms used to protect
    information.  This year the DISC takes place alongside the most important
    computing event of Mexico. 
    
    The computing general congress (http://www.org.org.mx/cuarenta) celebrates
    forty years of computing in Mexico and convokes specialists in computer
    security to participate. 
    
    "Individual Responsibility" is the slogan of this year and it suggests
    that the security of an organization should be totally supported by
    directive, security personnel, managers, and system users. 
    
    The community is convoked to participate in the DISC 98 event through the
    presentation of theoretical, technical, and applied works and those who
    presents practical experience in the following topics:
    
                    o Applied Cryptography
                    o Cryptographic Protocols
                    o Intrusion Detection
                    o Electronic Commerce 
                    o Privacy
                    o Protection of software and Intellectual Property
                    o Security Architecture and Models
                    o Security Protocols
                    o Incident Handling and the Internet
                    o Security on Large Networks other than the Internet
                    o New Tools for Incident Handling
                    o Preventing Incidents
                    o Intrusion/Vulnerability Detection Tools
                    o System/Network Monitoring Tools
