Real Rootkits, Virtual Conference

On the 10th of January 2007, I will be presenting at my first 'Virtual' conference, this being AVIEN's 2nd 'Virtual' conference; details and joining instructions can be found here: http://www.avien.org/conf2007.html

Although this is my first 'Virtual' conference, I have spoken/presented at many 'real' conferences, so I am reasonably comfortable in doing this, although I do find that I prefer a visible audience, rather than just 'presenting-down-a-phone', and not sure if anyone is still there, or even awake!

However, I have presented via the phone before, but never as part of a conference! The last one I did 'down-the-phone' was one on 'Bots and Botnets'.


The topic I'm covering this time is 'Rootkits: No longer just a *NIX problem'.

So, if you have a few hours to kill, and nothing better to do with your time, then please feel free to join in.

The good news is that I'm only presenting for 20-30 minutes, so you don't have to listen to me for the whole time. ;-) That said, there are three other very good speakers on this 'Virtual' conference, so it should be very worthwhile if you are interested in malware and anti-malware 'stuff' or just curious about AVIEN, and what it does.

The full agenda can be found here: http://www.avien.org/conf2007.html

If you do attend, I would welcome your feedback...[Now where did I put that fireproof suit?]
