Los Angeles, California
At the Pasadena Hilton
http://layerone.info

What is LayerOne? Currently in its 3rd year, LayerOne is computer security 
and technology conference held in the Los Angeles area. The purpose of 
LayerOne is to bring together the many different types of folks who make 
up the security community for a 2 day discussion of the technologies that 
impact our professional and personal lives.

Who should attend LayerOne? Just about anyone who is concerned with 
computer, information, and Internet security and the issues arising from 
it. Developers, System Administrators, Lawyers, IT managers, Students, 
Hackers, Engineers, Privacy Advocates, Hardware Hackers, Open Source fans, 
and garden variety Geeks will all find something of interest at LayerOne. 
Previous speakers have included the likes of Dan Kaminsky (Doxpara 
Research), Dave Hulton (Toorcon), Danny O'Brien (NTK), and Bruce Potter 
(Shmoo Group).

Call for Papers. LayerOne is now officially accepting papers and 
presentations for consideration at our 2006 show. We are looking for 
people to speak on a broad range of topics, so all submissions will be 
considered. At the moment we're interested in hearing from potential 
speakers with the following interests:

     * Data Forensics
     * Reverse Engineering
     * VoIP (security and development)
     * Emerging Security Trends
     * Regulatory Issues (SOX, PCI, ISO 17799, etc)
     * Firmware/Embedded Systems Hacking


Please note that we'd love to see as broad a range of topics this year as 
we did last year, so don't consider this to be a strict guideline on what 
we'd like people to be submitting. If you've got something that you think 
will fit, by all means send it in. To see a list of topics from 2005, 
please visit our website.

Please be sure to include the following information in your submission:

     * Presentation name
     * A one-sentence synopsis of your presentation
     * A longer one to three paragraph synopsis or short outline of what 
you plan on covering
     * Names of and URLs to presenter(s)
     * A short (single-paragraph) biography of the presenter(s)


Once everything's ready to go, send your submission to cfp [at] layerone 
[dot] info no later than March 31, 2006. All papers submitted by then will 
receive either an acceptance or rejection notice no later than April 5th, 
2006. Speaker selection is expected to be finalized on this date.

Although we only have one speaking track, please bear in mind that 
speaking slots are limited to one hour. How you use that time is entirely 
up to you - but most people tend to divide it between presentation and a 
Q&A session. If you think your presentation will run longer please advise 
us when you turn in your proposal and we will do our best take your needs 
into consideration.

If the presentation is based on code or a particular technique the 
presenter must be one of the developers of the code/technique and be 
prepared to perform a demonstration.

We look forward to reading over your submissions, which we are sure will 
be outstanding. Once again, if you have any questions or submissions 
please email cfp [at] layerone [dot] info. Thank you for your interest, 
and we look forward to seeing you there.
