WHEN IS TOORCON
----------------

TooRcon is September 1st-3rd, 2000.

2.0:
WHAT IS TOORCON
----------------

TooRcon is an annual computer security convention in San Diego,
California. We are now in our second year, and our first convention was
an absolute successs. Overwhelmingly participants
said they are looking forward to next year. Sadly, we had more people
then seats, and walls became resting places.

TooRcon takes a new home for its second year at the San Diego Concourse,

the sister building of the San Diego Convention Center. We have reserved

four times the amount of space than last
year and we plan to use every square foot of it. We have expanded the
TooRcon agenda to three days, and two more combined hours of planning.
The first day will be an all night party in a place
yet to be determined. Downtown San Diego is known for its wild night
life and we are still in the process of determining which club to go
with.

Saturday and Sunday will start the core of TooRcon, its lectures lineup.

We have expanded our very popular game, RootWars to be all day, both
days, in a dedicated room of the TooRcon area.

TooRcon 2000 Lectures Lineup Is:

Of course to fully understand TooRcon you have to understand one of its
most popular elements, RootWars. RootWars is a competitive real world
simulation of penetration and defense. On the
one hand you have the administrators and their servers, then on the
other hand you have the crackers and their tools. What results is an
explosive match of wits, and a chance to tighten your
abilities. On Saturday you may choose to administer and defend against
the onslaught of intrusions and on Sunday you may choose to be one of
the onslaughters. It's up to you, but either way
you look at it, it's not only enjoyment but a great learning experience.

This year at RootWars we will be joined by the great guys at Network
Security Wizards. They are going to monitor the network and also put up
their awesome Dragon intrusion detection
systems online to see how they fare. Maybe after Ron Gula's lecture on
How to Avoid IDS, you will be able to break Dragon? We'll see...
