=A0 =A0The EUSecWest 2012 conference consists of tutorials on
=A0 =A0technical details about current issues, innovative
=A0 =A0techniques and best practices in the information security
=A0 =A0realm. The audiences are a multi-national mix of
=A0 =A0professionals involved on a daily basis with security

=A0 =A0officers, and network administrators. We give preference
=A0 =A0to technical details and new education for a technical
=A0 =A0audience.

=A0 =A0The conference itself is a single track series of
=A0 =A0presentations in a lecture theater environment. The
=A0 =A0presentations offer speakers the opportunity to showcase
=A0 =A0on-going research and collaborate with peers while
=A0 =A0educating and highlighting advancements in security
=A0 =A0products and techniques. The focus is on innovation,
=A0 =A0tutorials, and education instead of product pitches. Some
=A0 =A0commercial content is tolerated, but it needs to be
=A0 =A0backed up by a technical presenter - either giving a
=A0 =A0valuable tutorial and best practices instruction or
=A0 =A0detailing significant new technology in the products.
