Location: Caesars Palace, Las Vegas, Nevada

The Black Hat Briefings is a conference for researchers, IT
professionals and experienced security administrators.

Every year, leaders in the security field are brought together to
Black Hat to discuss the latest threats, trends, products, and
influences in the Internet and security environment - it's not
something to miss.

This year's topics include: Reverse Engineering, the Honey Net
Project, the CVE, 802.11b WEP security, ICMP scanning, SQL security
configuration, GSM and WAP security, and more.

We've chosen 46 speakers for 40 different sessions with a new emphasis
on unique, never- before-heard presentations and demonstrations.  
We've posted detailed summaries of each session and the schedule is
on-line.

-- New features for 2001 include a "Tools of the Trade" track, a
wireless 802.11b network, Sign Language Interpreters for the hearing
impaired, and a CD ROM containing the presentations, tools, and
materials.

-- Our Keynote Speakers Include:

     * James Bamford, author of "The Puzzle Palace" & "Body of
Secrets", best-selling books about the NSA - the largest, most hidden
and most important intelligence agency in the U.S.

     * Richard Clarke is the senior U.S. government official
responsible for cyber security policy. He was appointed by the
President as the first national coordinator for security,
infrastructure protection and counter-terrorism. He chairs the U.S.
government's committees on cyber security, continuity of operations,
counter-terrorism, domestic preparedness and international crime.

-- Early Registration ends June 22nd. Attend Black Hat and receive a
free admission to DEF CON, immediately following the Conference July
13th-16th.
