Exciting range of topics to be covered at VB conference in Berlin this October.

The VB conference selection committee have been busily assessing more than 150 proposals submitted for this year's VB conference and have now made their final selections.

The more than 30 industry experts on the selection committee were tasked with reading, assessing and scoring each of the abstracts submitted and, after careful consideration, a programme has now been drawn up that covers many of today's most pertinent security-related topics:

  • Mobile malware
  • Banking trojans
  • Phishing & spam
  • Java exploits
  • AV testing
  • Pentesting
  • Law enforcement
  • and more...

The full programme, including abstracts for each paper, can be viewed here.

A little closer to the conference (in August-September), a call for 'last-minute' papers will be issued - with the aim of these sessions to present emerging material that is as up-to-the-minute as possible at the time of the event.
