I received a mail from ISACA (Information System Audit and Control Association)
about a web briefing. Hope this may interest you.
For your information.....
>ISACA is pleased to offer its members access to a web briefing on the topic
>of intrusion detection, on a no-fee basis. Here are the specifics:
>
>Date: 14 January 1999
>
>Time: 1:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time (U.S.). Duration: approximately one
>hour. (Note: if you cannot participate in the web briefing at that time,
>it will be archived within two hours. You may access the archived version
>for up to six months after the presentation.)
>
>Title of Briefing: "What the Hackers Know About Your Site, Part II:
>Emerging Patterns In Intrusion Detection"
>
>Description and Speakers: More sophisticated, stealthy attacks are
>beginning to be detected and may be harbingers of a new breed of
>professional, multinational, coordinated attacks. Stephen Northcutt, widely
>regarded as the nation's top intrusion detection expert and the person whose
>team discovered the recent multinational attack reported by CNN and ABC,
>will describe the characteristics of this new attack pattern as well as
>those of the most common attack patterns. The goal is to illustrate how to
>recognize an attack coming over the network.
>
>In addition, Axent's Intrusion Detection Expert, Drew Williams, will
>describe the most common attacks users are uncovering through host-based
>intrusion detection technology.
>
>An audio-conference combines graphics and audio, delivered via the Internet.
>You will hear the presenters speaking in real time, and you can view their
>graphics on the screen as the presentation progresses. You can also
>participate by e-mailing questions that may be selected to be answered
>during the briefing.
>
>What You Will Need: In order to participate in the web briefing, either in
>real time or the archived version, you will need a system with a browser
>that can process Real Audio or Microsoft Windows Media Streaming audio. If
>you wish to ask questions, you must also have an e-mail account from which
>to send them.
>
>How to Access: You may register for the web briefing at
>www.sans.org/jan14.htm. When you register, you will immediately receive a
>white paper on intrusion detection along with the URL, user name and
>password for the session. About two days before the session you will get
>the visuals as an e-mail attachment, which you may print in advance if you
>prefer to have a hard copy while you listen to the remarks. The graphics
>will also be available on your screen during the presentation.
