SyScan 09 Call For Papers - The Symposium on Security for Asia Network aims to be a very different security conference from the rest of the security conferences that the information security community in Asia has come to be so familiar and frustrated with. SyScan is a non-product, non-vendor biased security conference. It is the aspiration of SyScan to congregate in Asia the best security experts in their various fields, to share their research, discovery and experience with all security enthusiasts in Asia. This year SyScan will be held in Singapore, Shanghai, Taipei, and Hong Kong.
