Dear colleagues, this is a short message just to reconfirm that the deadline for submission of speech and training proposals for SEaCURE.IT is set to February 10th, and not to Jan 31st as originally noted in the website. We have received many excellent submission, besides the invited speakers already mentioned on our website, and we will notify selected speakers shortly after the deadline. However, it is still not too late to submit and be part of the event! SEaCURE.IT (http://www.seacure.it) will be held from May 19th to 22nd in the wonderful seaside resort Tanka Village, located in Villasimius, Sardinia, a large and beautiful island in the Mediterranean sea. Besides the main conference, featuring two tracks of top-notch presentations over two intense days, the programme will include two days of advanced trainings, and a set of unique social events (Italian style), in order to foster networking. I remind you that we are a non-product, non-vendor biased security conference, and do not accept vendor pitches. Any talk evidently aimed at selling products or services will be rejected without consideration. We look for novel research and contributions in the fields of computer, network and information security. Please, submit your idea to us: we will carefully evaluate it. We will also evaluate proposals for 1-dat or 2-days technical trainings on the same topics. We offer the following speaker privileges: * * One economy class return-ticket to Cagliari for each accepted presentation. * * 3 nights of accomodation in the Conference Hotel. * * Meals for the speakers, and speaker activities during, before, and after the conference. * * A comprehensive program of activities for non-geek partners :) * * Speaker party We offer the following trainer privileges: * * 50% of the net profit of the class * * 3 nights of accomodation in the Conference Hotel * * Meals during the days of the training * * Free access to the Conference * * Participation to speaker activities Please send your submission to cfp@xxxxxxxxxx with the following information IN PLAIN TEXT in your email: 1. Presenter name and affiliation 2. Country and city of origin for your travel to the conference, as well as nationality/passport for visa requirements 4. contact information (e-mail address and a landline phone if possible) 5. SHORT biography, and a list of SELECTED publications and papers 6. Proposed paper title / proposed training title 7. Proposed paper abstract / proposed training outline 8. Three key reasons why you want to speak at SEaCURE.IT and why we would want you to speak :) 9. Optionally, any samples of prepared material or outlines (for this, a pdf attachment is acceptable) 10. Please list any other publications or conferences where this material has been or will be published/submitted. Concurrent submission is not a reason for rejection, while un-announced multiple submissions will make you look considerably bad ;-) This last point also applies for the trainings, please let us know how many times the training has been delivered and where. Regards, Stefano Zanero
