Forwarded from: Dragos Ruiu <dr@private> CALL FOR PAPERS CanSecWest/core05 Network Security Training Conference http://cansecwest.com May 4-6 2005 Vancouver, B.C. Canada CanSecWest would like to announce the call for papers of the spring, sixth annual, CanSecWest/core05 network security training conference and the announcement of the final set of presentations for the PacSec.jp/core04 conference. The CanSecWest/core05 conference will be held on May 4-6 at the Mariott Renaissance in downtown Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The conference focuses on emerging information security tutorials and technology. Please submit all proposals for presentations by December 6. This year we will continue to also have two kinds of presentations, the normal one hour tutorials, and there will again be a session of the popular "lightning talks": 5 minutes max (BigHook/Gong enforced) and 1-3 slides. Selected "lightning talk" presenters will 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 17th, 2005. The conference is responsible for travel and accomodations for the tutorial 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 core05@private Tutorials are one hour in length. Only slides will be needed for the April paper deadline, full text does not have to be submitted. The CanSecWest/core05 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 core05@private to be considered for placement on the speaker roster. The selected papers for PacSec.jp/core04 are: George Kurtz - Google Hacking: Searching for ways to stop hackers. Shane "K2" Macaulay & Dino Dai Zovi - Wireless vulnerabilities from rogue access points. Nico Fischbach - Voice Over IP Security Maximillian Dornseif - 0wn3d by an iPod: Firewire/1394 Issues Nico Fischbach & Toby Kohlenberg - Best methods for detecting anomalies in global networks David Meltzer - Hybrid approaches for optimized network discovery Nicolas Brulez - Windows virus executable file infections and heuristic detection.
