ABOUT HIVERCON
In its second year, HiverCon is the only corporate European centric
information security conference that caters for an international
audience. Following last years conference, HiverCon 2003 will bring
together the leading minds in the international security industry for
an intense two day event. HiverCon covers the breaking security issues
as well as the issues that are not quite upon us. More importantly
HiverCon strives to teach the thinking and methodologies taken by
hackers and researchers when breaking security.

SUBMISSION OF PAPERS
HiverCon 2003 will cover a range of topics on current issues in the
security field. Below are guideline topics for paper submission, but
is by no means a definitive list, we especially welcome new research
and previously untouched topics.

 * Wireless Security
 * Intrusion Detection
 * Privacy & Anonymity
 * Firewall Technologies
 * Application Security
 * Incident Response and Computer Forensics
 * Security Auditing
 * Biometrics

All talks should be 75 minutes in length including time for delegate
participation and questions at the end of the presentation.  
Inclusion of any talk related tools, white papers or source code will
help during the selection process. While we try to facilitate
speakers' requests for equipment, we may not be able to accommodate
all requests. In cases where we cannot guarantee special equipment the
speaker is expected to supply hardware and/or software. Each speaker
is also expected to bring their own laptop to display their
presentation.

All talks must be vendor neutral, while speakers are welcome to
present on behalf of a company - sales pitches will be thrown out.

REMUNERATION
For each chosen presentation HiverCon will pay for 1 round trip economy
flight, 1 hotel room for 3 nights and 1 speaking fee of 1,000 Euro.

SPEAKER REQUIREMENTS
Please include the following information with your submission:

1. What title you are submitting your paper under.
2. A valid e-mail address AND telephone number where you can be reached.
3. Number of people that will be presenting.
4. A brief biography on why you are qualified to speak on your topic. This 
   will be used on www.hivercon.com as well as in any press material for 
   the conference.
5. If you are speaking under a company name, please specify for which 
   company you work.

Talks detailing new research and vulnerabilities will get priority
during the evaluation process. HiverCon is one of the few corporate
security conferences that not only pays a speaker honorium but covers
speaker travel and accommodation costs, and as such we favour talks
that present original material that has not been seen before.

Note that by presenting at HiverCon 2003 you grant HiverCon permission
to reproduce, distribute and/or advertise your talk as seen fit.
