Hey all,

Each year CansecWest rolls around I post to this list to plug it. I do
this because this conference is one of a dying breed. Its still highly
technical and bleeding edge yet almost entirely free of vendor sales
booths (and salesmen). This year seems almost tailored to the Penetration
Tester. The speakers (some of whom I have listed below) should provide
some very interesting talks. As mentioned here are some of the speakers
which speak to pen-testing issues:

Dan Kaminsky - Strange cool things about TCP/IP
Fx of Phenoelit - Attacking networked embedded systems
Fyodor - Advanced network reconnaissance techniques
Halvar Flake - Automated bug detection
Jobe - Shellcode2k3: Advancements in design and autogeneration
Jose Nazario - Internet trust evaluation using distribtion stats
Nicolas Fischbach - Router Forensics, DDos/Worm technology
Lance Spitzner - Evolutions in honeypot technology
Ron Gula & Renaud Deraison - Distributed Vulnerability Scanning
The Gruqq - Defeating Forensic Analysis

The conference runs in April and you can find more information on it at:

As per usual, Id love to meet any of you who are going for a beer.
