Talks & Workshops

We are interested in bleeding edge security research directly from leading researchers, professionals, academics, industry, government and the underground security community. DeepSec 2013 is all about secrets, failures and visions.

The DeepSec 2013 focuses heavily on mobile security. Any gadget that you carry with you or that is used by roadwarriors comes under scrutiny. This includes networked resources intended for the mobile audience and modern nomads as well. On top of that we like to hear about the security of our infrastructure, next generation or otherwise, - IPv6, cloud computing and services, virtualiation technologies, in short everything that should keep us online and connected for the next decades. We want to get a glimpse into the future based on the problems of today.
We're also interested in the Big Picture, namely security management, IT governance and security intelligence. If you have ideas how to steer your IT, face unknown threats, deal with damage control, to get and evaluate threat information, then whip up a paper and some slides. We'd like to hear about it.

Please do not submit specific single exploits (which might be fixed by the time of the conference) and "yet-another-XYZ-hack", script kiddy content or similar "breakthroughs". If it's already written in RFC, stone or best practice manuals, we're not interested. Save your effort for the Nobel prize. Exploit frameworks, general approaches, "defective by design" or "defective by implementation" and high impact exploits have a much higher chance to get accepted. ;-)

U21

DeepSec will sponsor young security researchers by providing an opportunity to attend the conference for free. In order to take advantage of this offer your have to submit a description of your own security research project. Your work will be an exhibit during the breaks. You have to present your project in the loung area. Optionally you can do a lightning talk about your work (roughly 5 minutes).

The offer is intended for everyone with a maximum age of 21 (or slightly more, depending on your social engineering skills).
