Heads-up All Security Specialists

The 2008 ACSAC is Coming

Directly from their website:

"The Annual Computer Security Applications Conference (ACSAC) is a premier security conference of outstanding tradition. Started in 1985, the conference has grown over the years to achieve worldwide attendance and recognition for the high quality of its presentations, discussions, and interactions."

The conference lasts a full week, and is a chance to meet and network with security experts. There are a number of papers and presentations about recent security issues, vulnerabilities, and ways to deal with threats. The focus is on application and management of security, rather than theory, so it should be interesting and understandable to a wide audience.

The conference will be held in Anaheim at the Sheraton Park Hotel at the Anaheim Resort, December 8 - 12, 2008. Paper submissions are also welcome, with a November 15 submission deadline.

If you're interested in computer security, this would be a good experience!! Visit their website from the link above for more information.
