    ABOUT HIVERCON
    In its second year, HiverCon is the only corporate European centric 
    information security conference that caters for an international 
    audience. Following last years conference, HiverCon 2003 will bring 
    together the leading minds in the international security industry for an 
    intense two day event. HiverCon covers the breaking security issues as 
    well as the issues that are not quite upon us. More importantly HiverCon 
    strives to teach the thinking and methodologies taken by hackers and 
    researchers when breaking security.
    
    SUBMISSION OF PAPERS
    HiverCon 2003 will cover a range of topics on current issues in the 
    security field. Below are guideline topics for paper submission, but is 
    by no means a definitive list, we especially welcome new research and 
    previously untouched topics.
    
     * Wireless Security
     * Intrusion Detection
     * Privacy & Anonymity
     * Firewall Technologies
     * Application Security
     * Incident Response and Computer Forensics
     * Security Auditing
     * Biometrics
    
    All talks should be 75 minutes in length including time for delegate
    participation and questions at the end of the presentation.  Inclusion 
    of any talk related tools, white papers or source code will help during 
    the selection process. While we try to facilitate speakers' requests 
    for equipment, we may not be able to accommodate all requests. In cases 
    where we cannot guarantee special equipment the speaker is expected to 
    supply hardware and/or software. Each speaker is also expected to bring 
    their own laptop to display their presentation. 
    
    All talks must be vendor neutral, while speakers are welcome to present
    on behalf of a company - sales pitches will be thrown out.
    
    REMUNERATION
    For each chosen presentation HiverCon will pay for 1 round trip economy
    flight, 1 hotel room for 3 nights and 1 speaking fee of 1,000 Euro.
    
    SPEAKER REQUIREMENTS

       company you work.
    
    Talks detailing new research and vulnerabilities will get priority during 
    the evaluation process. HiverCon is one of the few corporate security 
    conferences that not only pays a speaker honourium but covers speaker 
    travel and accommodation costs, and as such we favour talks that present 
    original material that has not been seen before.

    to reproduce, distribute and/or advertise your talk as seen fit.
