We are now in our second year, and our first convention was an absolute successs. Overwhelmingly participants said they are looking forward to next year. Sadly, we had more people then seats, and walls became resting places. TooRcon takes a new home for its second year at the San Diego Concourse, the sister building of the San Diego Convention Center. We have reserved four times the amount of space than last year and we plan to use every square foot of it. We have expanded the TooRcon agenda to three days, and two more combined hours of planning. The first day will be an all night party in a place yet to be determined. Downtown San Diego is known for its wild night life and we are still in the process of determining which club to go with. Saturday and Sunday will start the core of TooRcon, its lectures lineup. We have expanded our very popular game, RootWars to be all day, both days, in a dedicated room of the TooRcon area.

RootWars is a competitive real world simulation of penetration and defense. On the one hand you have the administrators and their servers, then on the other hand you have the crackers and their tools. What results is an explosive match of wits, and a chance to tighten your abilities. On Saturday you may choose to administer and defend against the onslaught of intrusions and on Sunday you may choose to be one of the onslaughters. It's up to you, but either way you look at it, it's not only enjoyment but a great learning experience. This year at RootWars we will be joined by the great guys at Network Security Wizards. They are going to monitor the network and also put up their awesome Dragon intrusion detection systems online to see how they fare. Maybe after Ron Gula's lecture on How to Avoid IDS, you will be able to break Dragon? We'll see... 3.0: WHERE IS TOORCON ----------------- TooRcon is located in San Diego, California.
