Abstract :
Each August, more than 4,000 IT administrators, industry experts, government officials, and hackers gather at a convention in Las Vegas. The Black Hat Briefings (www.blackhat.com), as that conference is known, started out many years ago as a hacker´s convention, but it has evolved into the premier venue for technical information on cybersecurity and the latest security research.
