AusCERT 2013

techadmin — Wed, 15 May 2013 02:21:16 +0000

AusCert 2013 is the annual AusCERT Information Security Conference and this year’s theme is “This time, it’s personal” reflecting the growth in attacks and unauthorised disclosures of online personal info. Motivated by illicit financial gain, cyber criminals obtain unauthorised access to personal information, but also data disclosures being posted publicly by attackers for political motives, rather than financial gain.

The theme will resonate and remind us the online environment provides opportunities galore to capture personal information. The conference will explore the impact these breaches and the importance of information security to prevent attack with presentations from a range experts from Australia and around the world to provide insight and solutions.

Date: 20 - 24 May 2013
Location: RACV Royal Pines Resort, Surfers Paradise
