PacSec 2008 CALL FOR PAPERS

World Security Pros To Converge on Japan

    TOKYO, Japan -- To address the increasing importance of information
    security in Japan, the best known figures in the international
    security industry will get together with leading Japanese
    researchers to share best practices and technology. The most 
    significant new discoveries about computer network hack attacks 
    and defenses will be presented at the sixth annual PacSec conference.

    The PacSec meeting provides an opportunity for foreign specialists  
    to be exposed to Japanese innovation and markets and collaborate 
    on practical solutions to computer security issues. In an informal
    setting with a mixture of material bilingually translated in both
    English and Japanese the eminent technologists can socialize and
    attend training sessions.

    Announcing the opportunity to submit papers for the PacSec 2008
    network security training conference. The conference will be held
    November 12/13th in Tokyo at the Aoyama Diamond Hall above
    Omotesando station. The conference focuses on emerging
    information security tutorials - it is a bridge between the
    international and Japanese information security technology
    communities..

    Please make your paper proposal submissions before September 1st,
    2008. Slides for the papers must be submitted for translation by
    October 1, 2008.

    A some invited papers have been confirmed, but a limited number of
    speaking slots are still available. The conference is responsible
    for travel and accomodations for the speakers. If you have a 
    proposal for a tutorial session then please email a synopsis of 
    the material and your biography, papers and, speaking background 
    to secwest08 [at] pacsec.jp . Tutorials are one hour in length, but 
    with simultaneous translation should be approximately 45 minutes 
    in English, or Japanese. Only slides will be needed for the October 
    paper deadline, full text does not have to be submitted.

    The PacSec conference consists of tutorials on technical details
    about current issues, innovative techniques and best practices in the
    information security realm. The audiences are a multi-national mix
    of professionals involved on a daily basis with security work: security
    product vendors, programmers, security officers, and network
    administrators. We give preference to technical details and
    education for a technical audience.

    The conference itself is a single track series of presentations in a
    lecture theater environment. The presentations offer speakers the
    opportunity to showcase on-going research and collaborate with peers
    while educating and highlighting advancements in security products
    and techniques. The focus is on innovation, tutorials, and education
    instead of product pitches. Some commercial content is tolerated,
    but it needs to be backed up by a technical presenter - either giving 
    a valuable tutorial and best practices instruction or detailing
    significant new technology in the products.

    Paper proposals should consist of the following information:
     1. Presenter, and geographical location (country of
        origin/passport) and contact info (e-mail, postal address,
        phone, fax).
     2. Employer and/or affiliations.
     3. Brief biography, list of publications and papers.
     4. Any significant presentation and educational
        experience/background.
     5. Topic synopsis, Proposed paper title, and a one paragraph
        description.
     6. Reason why this material is innovative or significant or an
        important tutorial.
     7. Optionally, any samples of prepared material or outlines
        ready.
     8. Will you have full text available or only slides?
     9. Please list any other publications or conferences where
        this material has been or will be published/submitted.
     10. Do you have any special demo or network requirements
        for your presentation?

    your email as well as any file, pdf, sxw, ppt, or html
    attachments.
