Obviously, security is an area of interest that MUUG and IPAM members share. MCISC brings together the implementers and developers of the hottest information security technologies. The conference avoids the "just another sales presentation" stigma and gets world experts to deliver real technical education to attendees. While the conference is supported by vendor sponsorship, the event is totally non-profit, is offered at a reasonable attendee cost ($50 including lunch till April 1), and helps further the goals of IPAM, which are: * To bring together industry professionals to present and discuss information security challenges and solutions. * To build understanding of the most recent trends and developments in the industry. * To share ideas, experience and insights into technical aspects of information systems security. * To enhance management and control of information systems security. * To develop contacts with other individuals, organizations and suppliers in the industry. I would be happy to provide any additional information about the conference for your membership. _____ Shawn Lukaschuk - IPAM MCISC Chair mcisc@ipam.mb.ca http://www.ipam.mb.ca/mcisc2003/link.htm# http://www.ipam.mb.ca/mcisc2003
