Dear Colleague,

I'm pleased to invite you to attend the 16th USENIX Security
Symposium, August 6-10, 2007, in Boston, MA. Computer security
today advances at an exceptional rate, as both its operational relevance
and the tension between attackers and defenders continue to grow.
New services, new systems, and new networking architectures
continually add new dimensions to the field and subvert previously
held assumptions. This symposium offers cutting-edge research on
topics that range from Web-based detection through memory
performance attacks.

* The Security training program can help you learn the latest on topics 
  such as:

-- TCP/IP Weapons School

-- Live Forensics

Experts such as Richard Bejtlich, Dan Geer, Frank Adelstein, and
Golden G. Richard will give you the information, techniques, tools, and
strategies you need to practice effective security today--and tomorrow.

* Don't miss the keynote address by Steven Levy, a senior editor and 
  columnist at Newsweek, on "How the iPod Shuffled the World as We Know 
  It."

* The Invited Talks cover a number of timely topics, including:

-- "Windows Vista Content Protection," by Peter Gutmann, University
   of Auckland, New Zealand

-- "Exploiting Online Games," by Gary McGraw, Cigital

-- And more...

* The 23 refereed papers present the best new research in a variety of 
  subject areas, including privacy, cellular network security, and 
  authentication.

* Join colleagues with similar interests for thought-provoking 
  discussions at the evening Birds-of-a-Feather sessions.

* Share a provocative opinion, interesting preliminary work, or a cool 
  idea that will spark discussion at the poster session. To submit a 
  poster, please send a 1-5 page(s) proposal, in PDF or PostScript, to 
  sec07posters@private by June 23, 2007

* Get a preview of next year's news or present your own new work and get 
  audience feedback at the Work-in-Progress reports (WiPs). Speakers 
  should submit a one- or two-paragraph abstract to sec07wips@private 
  by August 8, 2007.

Whether you're a researcher, a system administrator, or a policy wonk, 
come to the 16th USENIX Security Symposium to find out how changes in 
computer security are going to affect you. Please see

We look forward to seeing you in Boston, August 6-10, 2007.
