Forwarded from: Jeff Moss -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello ISN readers, I have a brief announcement I would like to make. The speaker selection for Black Hat USA 2006 is now complete. We have a fantastic line up of Briefings presentations and our largest selection of Training this year. Briefings: http://www.blackhat.com/html/bh-usa-06/bh-usa-06-schedule.html Training: http://www.blackhat.com/html/bh-usa-06/train-bh-usa-06-index.html For the first time in four years, we have been able to expand our speaking line. This is due to Caesars Palace has expanded their conference space, and Black Hat will be getting the entire fourth floor to ourselves! This means that for the first time in four years, we were able to expand the number of presentation tracks, panels as well as offer more opportunities for networking in our Human Network area. Some notes from the schedule: *A Root-kit focused track draws attention to the amount of work, and the speed of advancement, going into this field. *Ajax to Fuzzers--web app sec is taken to a new level. The largest number of talks dealing with web application security ever delivered at a Black Hat. As the web moves to a more interactive "web 2.0" model of participation it is only natural for there to be more risks involved. *A Windows Vista Security track which has been garnering a lot of press lately... this will be an unprecedented first comprehensive look at Vista security issues *Jim Christie is bringing his "Meet the Fed" panel over from DEF CON, and the Hacker Court is back along with panels on Disclosure, a Public Forum on Corporate Spyware Threats hosted by The Center for Democracy and Technology Anti-Spyware Coalition, and a new challenge will be presented by the Jericho Forum. Remember, prices increase July 1st for both the Briefings and Trainings.
