Schedule Rearrangement

We are extremely sorry about the short notice but we had to rearrange the schedule. Effectively this means that Adam Laurie will have both of his talks (A Day in the Life of a Hacker, RFIDIOts!!) on Thursday and Nishad’s (Now you see it, Now you dont – Obfuscation for fun and profit!) will be kept on Friday.

We apologize for the possible inconvenience.

Jack C. Louis and Robert E. Lee to talk about New DoS Attack Vectors

As you might have noticed the schedule for T2´08 was already published a while ago. However, we’ve received such an unusual submission that we have decided to include it to the schedule. Effectively this means that we have replaced the second part of “Iceberg Incorporated – A Peek Under the Surface of the Criminal Enterprise” with this new talk. And now about this new talk …

Jack C. Louis and Robert E. Lee from Outpost24 will divulge new technical details about TCP state table manipulation vulnerabilities that affect availability.

Specifically this talk will showcase new attacks that will render a remote system unavailable using a very low bandwidth attack stream. Attacks against Windows, BSD, Linux, and embedded systems TCP/IP stack implementations will be discussed and demonstrated.

Please see the schedule for details.

T2´08 Schedule Published

The schedule for T2´08 has been published. We might sound like a broken record but T2 staff thinks that we have extremely good program for this year.

We would also like to thank all the people that sent in their talk proposals. Please remember that even if your presentation did not get approved it does not mean that we did not want it. In order to have an interesting event we try our best to make sure that the program has “something for everyone”.

Please see the schedule for details.
