WOOT! Looks Exciting
The call for papers is now up for a new Usenix workshop, WOOT (Workshop On Offensive Technologies, but don’t think the name came before the acronym.) The workshop will be co-hosted with Usenix Security and will focus on new practical attacks.I think this is great.I was recently saying that vulnerability research could use more Peer Review instead of the other kind of PR (i.e., vague news stories, user-scaring Month of X Bugs). So help the community out here by submitting quality papers, especially if you’ve never submitted one before. I think the goal of bridging the gap between slideware (e.g., Blackhat) and 15th generation theoretical overlay network designs (e.g. Usenix Security) is a great one.
