Special Details About This Meeting/Audience:
From June 11-16, 2017, the Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST) will be holding their Annual Conference in San Juan, Puerto Rico. FIRST brings together a wide variety of security and incident response professionals from public, private and academic sectors around the world to exchange information, build trust relationships and co-operate on issues of mutual interest.
The conference will offer the opportunity for information security experts and managers to engage in meaningful conversation and learn from one another about relevant technical and managerial topics and ideas. We intend to have three major tracks running in parallel, covering various subjects which are explained in detail below.
Novice members of incident response and security teams are always welcome and are strongly invited to become part of our worldwide community. Perspectives from all experience levels are valuable in the security and incident response fields, and new members often bring new solutions to the problems we all face.
FIRST Conferences are known for presentations and tutorials/workshops taught by leading researchers or practitioners in the operations of incident response, product security or other security teams. Presentations are great opportunities for practitioners, who do not have the time to write a full paper as usually expected at other conferences. What we are looking for are leading-edge research, challenging discoveries, working solutions and established best practices already adopted by more than a single team. We also invite fresh ideas and challenges presented to the global community for discussion and consideration. Such presentations might be scary or optimistic about the current state of practice; what we look for are perspectives that should have an impact for the work of CSIRTs, PSIRTs, SOCs, or other security teams. We also invite original contributions as research papers, tutorials/workshops, panels, demonstrations, or posters!
We regard the audience as experts from the field, either technical or managerial. Therefore, introductory presentations on routine topics such as how cryptography or intrusion detection systems work, the need for a CSIRT for a particular constituency, or the basic plans necessary to establish a new team are probably not appropriate. This can be considered a given, or the dissemination of such basic topics is not the objective of a FIRST conference. However as explained above we would consider new attacks on cryptography, new IDS evasion techniques or the need for a new type of incident response team not heard of before would be considered.
