Howdy!
I've finally prepared the web page for this year's Retreat. See
http://www.ntbugtraq.com/retreat.asp
Before I get into the details of the summer Retreat, I'd like to ask you
to consider responding to a few questions;
1. Would you attend an NTBugtraq Retreat held in Europe? Say Austria?
Maybe Southern Germany?
2. If yes to #1, which is better, July/August, or January/February?
3. If you've considered attending but decided not to (as opposed to
being told you couldn't go), why?
Thanks!
Now onto details about this year's NTBugtraq Retreat...
This year's NTBugtraq Retreat is being held between July 19th and July
22nd, from a Monday night to Thursday night.
Tuesday morning will be a first. The Retreat will open on July 20th with
me, and possibly you, delivering the Key Note address to the MIS
Training Institute's Conference on Securing and Auditing Windows
Technologies, live from beside the pool and lake at the Retreat to an
auditorium full of folks at the Fairmont in Boston, MA. Should be
interesting...;-]
Other sessions so far identified are;
1. Windows XP SP2 - How significant is it, will it represent Microsoft's
efforts in the future?
2. Windows Server 2003 Quarantine Server and TruSecure PCHealthCheck.
3. The State of Spam - Talk about various anti-spam techniques as well
as the state of X2KSpamAway.
4. Malware Update - Talk about the trends in Malware, what's happened,
what's coming.
The balance of the discussion slots will be determined by you, the
attendees. Everyone who attends needs to suggest a topic for discussion,
one which they can speak to (either describing, or questioning) for
about 15 minutes. As their firmed up they'll be added to the web page.
We're hoping to have 44 people here this year.
The cost for this year's Retreat will be Canadian $1500.00. This does
not include accommodations, many past attendees have asked that
accommodations be separate, so I've decided not to supply them at all. A
list of accommodations is in the Retreat web page.
Last year was the first time we didn't have someone from Microsoft in
attendance. Although I haven't gotten a name yet, I am very confident
that we'll have Microsoft in attendance this year. Given Bill Gate's
recent interest in security, I have emailed him an invitation...;-] I'm
told he comes to a location near my home each year.
So, check out the web page for all of the details about the location,
meals, etc... and let me know if there's a possibility you might be able
to attend.
Cheers,
Russ - NTBugtraq Editor
