hmm wow i agreed with almost all of that :)
So the best thing about small conferences is that they can experiment a
bit speaking of which.. i have invented "a method and apparatus to preseve 0day even during public disclosure at security conferences." for the good of the community, i'll share my trade secrets: 1. present at a conference where attendees are not very fluent in the language you present it 2. speak very quickly. avoid pausing for breaths, this will give the audience the opportunity to digest what you've just said. 3. use lots of idioms 4. be sure your slides are not available ahead of time 5. refuse to be recorded. if you can afford it, hire security staff to pat down attendees for contraband (voice recorders, camcorders, etc.). the MPAA hasn't yet discovered the value of mandatory pat downs at movie theatres... these steps will the 0day remains 0day even after it's publicly presented.. possibly even at numerous conferences until your material is finally deciphered and redistributed in plainspeak.
http://www.syscan.org/ is not a big conference. This is probably one of its strengths. The other strength is the organizers - Thomas Lim ...
Yeah for sure. My three favorite conferences are due to the organizers: 1. cansecwest isn't cansecwest without dragos 2. xcon isn't xcon without xfocus 3. syscan isn't syscan without thomas
myself, Matthew Conover, and SK Chong are also on the CFP committee, which means papers will be vetted for technical content quite carefully.
