We're trying to pick some conventions that have strong "capture the

last year.  We're already booked to go to DefCon this year, but we're
looking for another/sooner convention to go to for a warm-up.

Anyone have a recomendation for a security-oriented convention where we
could get some serious challenges to our security provisions?

Thanks,
