The concept behind troopers08:

Today, information is power - and sharing information is the multiplication of power. We experience an era where connectivity is not a feature anymore – it´s just there. Technologically & socially everyone and everything is connected to anything & anyone, anytime.
Given this, the ability to control who may collect, store, process and digest information is one of the key assets of every organisational unit, may it be .gov, .mil, .com, .org or a single private person.
But the benefits of today´s technologies also bring a wide range of attack vectors right into the core of our networks. The everchanging attack strategies and methodologies make „traditional“ network-security concepts obsolete.

 

WHO HOSTS THIS CON AND WHY?

Troopers08 is hosted by ERNW GmbH, an independent IT-Security consultancy from Heidelberg, Germany. In the past years, speakers from ERNW were invited all around the world to present their latest IT-Sec research results and to share their knowledge within the global hacking community. With this global experience in mind ERNW decided to launch an international conference in Germany. An event unlike all other „Security Conferences“ we have seen in Germany so far: No product presentations, no marketing blabla, no bull*ht-bingo – just pure practical IT-Security. Real answers and practical benefits to meet today´s and tomorrows threats.

TROOPERS08 - WHAT IS IT?

Troopers08 is an international IT-Security Conference on the 23rd and 24th of April 2008 in Munich, Germany. This event is for CISOs, ISOs, IT-Auditors, IT-Sec-Admins, IT-Sec Consultants and everyone who is involved with IT-Security on a professional basis. The goal is to share in-depth knowledge about the aspects of attacking and defending information technology infrastructure and applications. The featured presentations and demonstrations represent the latest discoveries and developments of the global hackeing scene and will provide the audience with valuable practical know-how.
