Upcoming Black Hat events announcement



Dear BugTraq readers,

I want to keep you up to date with what Black Hat is up to. Currently there is 
a stand alone training in Seattle 
in October, a Briefings in Tokyo in October, and a Federal Training and 
Briefings in Crystal City in January. Black 
Hat returns to Amsterdam at the end February with expanded training and 
briefings. The CFP for Amsterdam will 
open by October 15th.

Video from the summer USA show is starting to get encoded, and we will be 
updating the Black Hat "Black Pages" 
in the coming weeks to reflect what happened, and still is happening, with the 
whole ISS/Cisco drama.

Thank you.

Jeff Moss

Tokyo, Keio Plaza Hotel * 17-18 October 2005 * japan.blackhat.com

Black Hat is honored to continue its partnership with Internet Association 
Japan to bring the second annual Black 
Hat Briefings Japan.

The Black Hat Japan 2005 Briefings will take place at the Keio Plaza Hotel, 
October 17-18.  The Black Hat Japan 
Briefings feature an international line up of internationally renowned security 
experts from around the globe.
Black Hat Briefings was originally founded in 1997 by Jeff Moss to fill the 
need of computer security professionals 
to better understand the security risks to their computers and information 
infrastructures by potential threats. To 
do this, the Black Hat Briefings assembles a group of vendor neutral security 
professionals and let them speak 
candidly about the problems businesses face, and the solutions they see to 
those problems. No gimmicks, no sales 
pitches, just straight talk by people who make it their business to explore the 
ever-changing security space.

This year's conference will include talks by Dan Kaminsky on the Black Ops of 
TCP/IP, David Maynor and  Robert Graham 
presenting on Architecture Flaws in Common Security Tools, the Grugq discussing 
VOIP security issues, Chris Hurley - 
Identifying and Responding to Wireless Attacks,  Jeremiah Grossman presenting 
on Phishing with Super Bait, Saumil 
Shah and David Cole collaborating on an Adware/Spyware talk.  Attendees will 
get the rare chance to meet with these 
and other experts up close and to ask specific questions about their findings, 
encouraging the quality exchange of 
information among the international attendees.  For more information on the
