Call for Speakers for SECURE 2015 is now open. If you have an interesting topic and would like to share your ideas with a crowd of Polish and international IT security specialists, and/or are looking for a good reason to visit Warsaw, Poland, please consider submitting your proposal. You will find all applicable information below. SECURE 2015 is a conference dedicated entirely to IT security and addressed to administrators, security team members and practitioners in this field. SECURE’s unique feature is the organisers’ commitment to providing participants with reliable information about everything that is current and meaningful in IT security. A high professional level of the talks is ensured by CERT Polska during the paper selection process. Particular emphasis is on practical solutions, analysis of the current threats, latest trends in countering threats as well as important legal issues. Participants have an opportunity to gain the latest knowledge, improve their qualifications and exchange experience with experts. Last year cybersecurity gained increased attention in Polish media – starting from losses incurred by the consumer to banking trojans or other fraud, through the online availability saga of the Polish voting commission, to effects of a supposed military conflict. While it may seem that users’ awareness is slowly but gradually increasing and Polish security specialists haven proven their skills in both official (eg. NATO LockedShields) and unofficial (ctftime.org) hacker contests, the room for education in still vast. Even more so when APT attacks which were mostly just a topic for speculation until recently, are increasingly present in Polish enterprises, which not always know how to tackle them. It’s a truism that attacks can never be prevented with absolute confidence. It is therefore essential to learn to detect them early and react efficiently. We wish for SECURE 2015 to be a place for all IT security specialists to increase and share their competence in both defense and reaction. SECURE 2015 will be held on October 14-15 at the Copernicus Science Centre in Warsaw, Poland, focused around three main tracks: technical – practical aspects of implementation and integration of security solutions organisational – new trends in attacks, threats and their mitigation legal Presentation topics We are looking for speakers willing to deliver a talk covering one or more of the following subjects: malware analysis, including viruses, worms and botnets intrusion detection innovatory honeypot and sandbox applications Advanced Persistent Threat attacks monitoring of network threats security of smartphones and other mobile systems security events visualisation cloud security security of IPv6 security of SCADA/ICS incident handling standards for security incident data exchange DDoS attacks and their mitigation protection of online identity Polish and European law in regards to computer and information security law enforcement actions in regards to cybercrime mitigation research projects in the area of computer and information security securing the human Important facts proposals for presentations should be submitted via email to [email protected] and should include the title of presentation, its abstract and short bio of the author, mentioning former conference talks where applicable time for presentation: 45 minutes, including q&a commercial presentations will not be accepted all materials should be submitted in one of the following formats: OpenOffice, Microsoft Office, PDF slides of presentations will be made available to all participants in an electronic version unless strictly prohibited by the speaker authors of accepted proposals will receive full conference package (workshops not inclusive), but they are responsible for their travel and accomodation Important dates Proposals submission until: June 30, 2015 Acceptance notice by: July 29, 2015 Presentation submission by: October 5, 2015
