----- Forwarded message from John Ormonde <jafo1723at_private> ----- From: John Ormonde <jafo1723at_private> Date: Wed, 27 Feb 2002 15:44:22 -0500 To: vuln-devat_private, pen-testat_private, bugtraqat_private Subject: CanSecWest '02 conference X-Mailer: iPlanet Webmail I was thinking about registering for this conference but there isn't an agenda yet on the web site and the registration form won't accept my credit card info. The tentative speaker list looks pretty impressive but these two things put some doubt in my mind about the conference. Has anyone successfully registered? Did anyone attend last year? Was it worthwhile? --------------------------------------------------------- The on-line registration system still only accepts VISA, though we are working on direct authentication modules for Mastercard and Paypal. We have gone through some detailed design to develop a secure transaction system (even down to the level of pgp encrypting record information stored _inside_ the database in case the server is compromised), which we've had pen-tested by an all star audit team including hdm and rfp... We figured the attendees of this conference _would_ notice any slip ups :-). You may register for the conference through the automated system at http://cansecwest.comor with a company cheque by e-mailing core02at_private and getting further info. In the interim while the new auth modules are being added we can accomodate AmEx (though we currently have no plans for adding automated processing of AmEx directly on line) and Mastercard through a manual PayPal transfer please contact core02at_private for this and/or any other conference related inquiries.
