Hi all,
Hope this is not seen as spam, but since a lot of the Pauldotcom crew
member's (all maybe?) will be there, I figured it would be of interest.
Also, Louisville is in driving distance for a lot of people who can make
Shmoocon/Defcon/Black Hat. Sorry for any speaker names that may be missing
from the video (don't want it to be too long), more will be on the site in a
week I imagine.
Dave Kennedy <http://www.secmaniac.com/> put together a teaser video for
Derbycon <http://derbycon.org/>. Blurb from Dave:
About a year ago Adrian Crenshaw, Martin Bos, and myself were sitting
around in Louisville and talking about one day creating one amazing
hackercon. We never imagined it would have came to light, but it did. We are
happy to announce that we have done some pre-selection of some speakers
which we think you'll be impressed by. Our goal is to create a hackercon
that is unique, top notch, and a place where we all come together as one and
share. If any of you know us personally, you know that we steer clear from a
persona of an elitist. We are all in this world we call security together
and none of us are better than one another. All of us are learning
everyday... DerbyCon is a con where we are all in it together, where you can
approach anyone, share with anyone, and have a ton of fun doing it. Our
official website launch with all the relevant information about the
conference will be posted January 10, 2011 (sometime during the
morning/afternoon). This teaser video was released to show you a taste of
some of the speakers we have. It's truly inspirational to us that we have
such a great speaker list already even before CFP has officially opened.
*A couple of important topics that we will leak ahead of time:* The
ticketing system will be straight forward, tickets will open officially to
purchase April 29, 2011. The tickets will be $125.00 that weekend, and go up
to $150.00 on that Monday until DerbyCon day. On the day itself tickets will
be $175. I will admit there is limited spacing, we rented the entire second
floor of the Hyatt and tickets will go fast.
*The second leak:* The con will run from 9:00am to 5:00pm Friday and
Saturday and Sunday from 9:00am until 3:00pm. There will be training
provided at night from 5:30pm to 10:30pm after conference hours. We will
also have BSIDES KY going on at the same time from 5:30pm to 10:30pm, so
regardless if your in training or BSIDES, your covered.
Sit back and relax and enjoy this 1 minute 47 second video of DerbyCon and
some of the speakers and be sure to check out http://www.derbycon.com.
