TOORCON 2002 THIS WEEKEND

We would like to invite everyone to ToorCon 2002 this year which is on
the 27-29th of September. We have just recently released our finalized
speaker lineup and it looks like it'll be one of ToorCon's best years
yet. This is a final reminder that ToorCon will be this weekend, so
mark your calendars if you haven't already!


TOORCON COMPUTER SECURITY CONFERENCE 2002 
ToorCon is a comprehensive three day computer security extraveganza
featuring lectures from some of the top experts in the field, hands-on
demonstrations of the newest approaches to computer security, and a
competitive game called RootWars which tests your penetration and
defensive skills in a real-time simulation. It will be held on
September 27-29th in Downtown San Diego and starts off with a
reception the The Bristol Hotel on 1055 First Ave., San Diego, CA
92101 (right across the street from the Concourse). The Conference
will take place on Saturday, September 28th and Sunday, September 29th
in the Grand Ballroom at the Westin Horton Plaza San Diego on 910
Broadway Circle, San Diego, CA 92101.


VENUE CHANGE
The venue of the talks has changed from the San Diego Concourse to the
Westin Horton Plaza Hotel. Due to the increased number of attendees,
the Westin will be able to facilitate growth a lot better. It also has
a better atmosphere and is closer to San Diego Attractions. The
reception will still be at the Bristol's Starlight Ballroom like last
year. Currently all rooms at the Bristol are sold out, most of the
surrounding hotel have vacancies.

PRICING
We have closed pre-registration and rsvp already, so if you haven't
registered yet, you must do so at the door. Registration at the door
this year is $75. The reason for the increase in price is we want to
make enough money to roll over for the next year. Last year we barely
broke even and the year before we were $1000 under. Our focus is
having the BEST talks you can find at real people prices - with out
having to file for bankruptcy :).


EVENTS
This year we are bring back Root Wars. We suggest you bring your
laptop and join the fun. We will have a wireless network up thanks to
the guys from BAWUG. Bodoman will be back and he will be bring tons of
gear down to sell and give away for prizes. There will be new contests
this year, including raffle giveaways.


SPONSORSHIP
We are still accepting sponsors, if you or your company is interested
in sponsorship opportunities, please reply to this message.
