The Black Hat Briefings USA '01
Security Conference Announcement

http//www.blackhat.com/

Training July 9th-10th
Conference July 11th-12th @ Caesars Palace, Las Vegas, Nevada

The Black Hat Briefings is a conference for IT professionals and
experienced security administrators, researchers, and attackers.

Every year leaders in the security field are brought together to this
conference to discuss the latest threats, trends, products, and influences
in the Internet and security environment. Don't miss it.

This year's topics include: Reverse Engineering, the Honey Net Project,
the CVE, 802.11b WEP security, ICMP scanning, SQL security configuration,
GSM and WAP security, and more.

There be 34 speakers, with a new emphasis on unique, never before heard
presentations and more demonstrations.  Technical content is up, and stuff
we already know is down.  Black Hat does not have a million speakers, and
that allows it to be more selective.

- New features for 2001 include a "Tools of the Trade" track, a wireless
802.11b network, Sign Language Interpreters for the hearing impaired, and a
CD ROM containing the presentations, tools, and materials.

Just in:James Bamford, Author of "The Puzzle Palace" will be speaking on
researching secrets and his experience in writing his new book on the NSA,
"Body of Secrets."

Early Registration ends June 22nd. Attend Black Hat and receive a free
admission to DEF CON, immediately following the Conference July 13th-16th.
