[DFSci] 2011 Digital Forensics and IR Summit - 7-8 June in Austin TX

[Rob Lee]

Dear Colleague,

 
The 3rd annual  SANS What Works in Digital Forensics and Incident Response 
Summit  held  in Washington DC was a success.  The speakers and panelists 
provided an  array of informative and useful sessions. We  certainly enjoyed 
hosting the event and look forward to many more in  the future.  The 
presentations from the 2010 Summits are posted here:

As the 2010 summit  was such a resounding success we have already blocked the 
dates for  next year’s event. It will  be held at the Omni hotel in downtown  
Austin, Texas. It  will take place on the 7th and 8th  of June 2011, but  don't 
just put those dates in your calendar, register NOW,( 
https://www.sans.org/forensics-incident-response-summit-2011 ) because if you  
register before December 31st 2010 using the codeFOR2011 you will get an  
additional 15% discount off the early bird price, and what’s more this  code is 
valid for 2 registrations so bring a colleague along!

Interested in helping out or presenting for next years Summit?  While the SANS 
Digital Forensic Summit is invite only event for speakers and panelists, I am 
always looking for unique presentations that help further the community.  If you 
have an idea for the summit next year, please email me and we can chat.  If you 
have any suggestions of speakers/panelists we should invite, also please make 
recommendations to us.  We pride ourselves on ensuring every speaker and 
panelist is a dynamic orator that can engage the audience.

 
Not only is Austin home  to the Texas state capitol, it is also the epicenter of 
the state's  music, art, and avante garde scenes. Walk down the street and you 
are  bound to find a bumper sticker or two proclaiming "Keep Austin Weird".  
Just 2 blocks from the Omni hotel, 6th street Entertainment District  offers 
multiple music venues with everything from country to bluegrass  to rock and 
roll, for true music lovers, a visit to Austin City Limits  is a must.
