JANET(UK) in conjunction with the JANET community are currently planning the next JANET CSIRT Security Conference to be held in the latter half of October 2010 on a date and at a venue to be confirmed.
As in previous years there will be no charge for delegates to attend this event which means that while we will make best endeavours to ensure that as much of the community as possible has a chance to attend there may have to be some restriction on numbers of delegates per institute attending depending on the response for places which will be restricted to 100 initially.
We would appreciate hearing from members of the community with ideas for content or recommendations for speakers. We would also welcome volunteers from the community to present a security based or security topical talk/presentation to like minded members of the JANET community. The conferences tend to be a fairly short day to
allow delegates to travel to and from the venue, as far as possible, on the same day therefore it is usual to have a full program of short presentations with adequate breaks for networking and discussion. This does not exclude the odd longer presentation if an abridged version might lose its punch.
The security conferences have been very well supported and accepted by the community in the past and have been an excellent forum for exchange of ideas and of course the social networking that takes place in events
such as these.
