Hello InfoSec News Readers,

I wanted to make some quick Black Hat related announcements.

The Call For Papers for Black Hat USA is now open.
This is the main event, and this year we have even more space, we have 
expanded from 9 tracks to 11, and we will be introducing Break Out 
sessions and the Deep Knowledge track will now span both days. We are 
working to expand the depth and breath of content, so if you have 
something up your sleeve you want to present, check out the CFP:
