*SyScan'06 CALL FOR PAPER*
***ABOUT SYSCAN’06***
The Symposium on Security for Asia Network aims to be a very different
security conference from the rest of the security conferences that the
information security community in Asia has come to be so familiar and
frustrated with.
SyScan’06 intends to be a non-product, non-vendor biased security
conference. It is the aspiration of SyScan’06 to congregate, in
Singapore, the best security experts in their various fields, to share
their research, discovery and experience with all security enthusiasts
in Asia.
The speakers that will be at SyScan’06 are among the best, and brightest.
These experienced security professionals at the vanguard of leading
information security technology have assembled unique new material that
they will present at this conference to help you maintain your
technological leadership and stay abreast of the latest developments in
this rapidly moving technological field.
This two-day symposium will be held in a relaxed and informal
atmosphere, allowing all participants to enjoy themselves whilst
expanding their knowledge on information security.
SyScan’06 will be held in Singapore on 20th and 21st of July, 2006 over
at the Swissotel Merchant Court Hotel.
