The conference will be held on April 21,22,23 at the Mariott Renaissance in downtown Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The conference focuses on emerging information security tutorials and technology. So many people have come in after the deadline because we did it earlier this year and asked for more time... That the deadline will be extended to: January 5, 2004. Preference will be given to earlier proposals. Resubmissions are not necessary for those who have submitted though they may resubmit at their option. LIGHTNING TALKS I would also like to announce the call for a second type of presentation. This year we will do a session of "lightning talks": 5 minutes max (BigHook/Gong enforced) and 1-3 slides. Selected "lightning talk" presenters will only receive registration discounts (or rebates) - travel and accomodations are their responsibility. "Ligntning talk" submissions should follow the same submission guidelines below. Deadline for "lightning talk" submissions is January 15th, 2004. Please make your paper proposal submissions on/before January 5, 2004! The conference is responsible for travel and accomodations for the speakers. If you have a proposal for a tutorial session then please email a synopsis of the material and your biography, papers, and speaking background to core04@private Tutorials are one hour in length, Only slides will be needed for the March paper deadline, full text does not have to be submitted. The CanSecWest/core04 conference consists of tutorials on technical details about current issues, innovative techniques and best practices in the information security realm. The audiences are a multi-national mix of professionals involved on a daily basis with security work: security product vendors, programmers, security officers, and network administrators. We give preference to technical details and education for a technical audience. The conference itself is a single track series of presentations in a lecture theater environment. The presentations offer speakers the opportunity to showcase on-going research and collaborate with peers while educating and highlighting advancements in security products and techniques. The focus is on innovation, tutorials, and education instead of overt product pitches. Some commercial content is tolerated, but it needs to be backed up by a technical presenter - either giving a valuable tutorial and best practices instruction or detailing significant new technology in the products. Paper proposals should consist of the following information: 1) Presenter, and geographical location (country of origin/passport) and contact info (e-mail, postal address, phone, fax). 2) Employer and/or affiliations. 3) Brief biography, list of publications and papers. 4) Any significant presentation and educational experience/background. 5) Topic synopsis, Proposed paper title, and a one paragraph description. 6) Reason why this material is innovative or significant or an important tutorial. 7) Optionally, any samples of prepared material or outlines ready. Please forward the above information to core04@private to be considered for placement on the speaker roster.
