[Full-disclosure] Troopers 2010 security conference, CfP



Once more, it will be Troopers time.


This year, again,  _everybody_ involved in the event (speakers and attendees) 
enjoyed themselves and could significantly gain knowledge (and/or network with 
other researchers). We had great presentations, a number of interesting tools 
saw the light of earth and - as was the case in 2008 with Francisco's and 
Federico's Evilgrade - some groundbreaking stuff was presented at Troopers for 
the first time at all. 

Next year's Troopers edition will be held in the beautiful city of Heidelberg 
(on 03/10 and 03/11 2010) and will feature two tracks, one on attack techniques 
and security research, the other focused on management aspects of the infosec 
world.
To get an idea of the event pls look at www.troopers08.org [in 2009 we've been 
partnering with another event and subsequently changed the format, we'll get 
back to the initial structure in 2010].


Our call for papers addresses security researchers interested in sharing their 
knowledge with other researchers and a high level audience. We would like to 
invite everyone with special knowledge in breaking security in whatever area or 
practical experience in securing complex information systems to present their 
skills, tools or experience.


Speaker Privileges
==================

We will cover the flight costs (limited to EUR 500 for speakers from Europe and 
US$ 1500 for speakers from other continents) and three nights of accomodation. 

"Fresh Headz"
=============

Given an appropriate subject and technical level we're happy to welcome "fresh 
speakers" (not seen in various places before) and we're happy to help you with 
setting up your talk (or getting over your pre-talk excitement).


Submissions
===========

We are mainly interested in talks on

Virtualization Stuff
Embedded Devices
Industrial Networking
Security in Carrier Environments
Secure Coding

Obviously heavy vendor-pitching will not be welcomed warmly and we reserve the 
right to ask for modifications of confirmed talks if we have the impression 
there's too much of that in a talk. If you have to offer another "Web 2.0 cross 
browser unicode overflow" talk you may submit it. However chances will be 
bigger if you have some more innovative stuff to talk about...



CFP submissions [to cfp@xxxxxxxxxxx] must include the following information: 

1) Brief biography including list of publications and papers published 
previously. 

2) Proposed presentation title & synopsis/description.

3) Contact Information (full name, alias, handle, e-mail, postal address, 
phone, country of origin, special meal requirement, smoking habits ;-).

4) Employment and/or affiliations information. 
 
5) Why is your material different or innovative or significant?

Please note that all speakers will be allocated 55 minutes of presentation time 
+ 5 minutes Q+A. Any speakers that require more time must inform the CFP 
committee in the course of the submission.

By agreeing to speak at Troopers10 you are granting ERNW GmbH the rights to 
reproduce, distribute, advertise and show your presentation including but not 
limited to http://www.troopers.de, printed and/or electronic advertisements, 
and all other mediums.
