Call for Papers & Workshops |
OzSecCon is the first conference in Australia focused specifically on physical security research and offensive/defensive techniques. Talks will be on average 30-60 minutes long.
We aim to bring the openness to share information found in conferences of the information security industry to a different crowd.
Please fill out the Google forms below to submit talk or workshop proposal.
→ Talks
Submissions close April 30th 2018.
We are looking for presenters to talk on a range of topics in an informal environment amongst their peers.
In the hacker-spirit of things we’re after submissions that hold great technical detail and/or provide a critical view at an aspect or technology within the domain of physical security.
So, some topic ideas:
- picking techniques
- bypass techniques & tools
- impressioning techniques
- digital lock manipulation
- decoding attacks
- safe manipulation
- the locksport community and our hobby
- historical/antique locks
- privilege escalation attacks
- key duplication
- alarm system attacks
- building access control systems
- motor vehicle security
- DIY tools and their making
- making cut-aways
- lock manufacturing
- metallurgy, metalworking, and material science research
- improving physical security
- 'tamper-evident' seals
- making/hacking challenge locks
- legal aspects of locksport in Oceania
- physical security in red teaming/pen. testing
- radio security (eg. mobile, pagers, CB radio)
- RFID/Magstripe/Smartcard security
- social engineering
If your topic isn't listed here but relates to physical security, please submit anyway and we will be happy to review it.
Submissions that have nothing to do with physical security will be rejected.
In addition to traditional 'talks' (like at most other conferences), OzSecCon will have hands-on content.
We are looking for people to run workshops. These can run anywhere between an hour to the full course of the conference.
Some workshop topic ideas are as follows:
- impressioning
- picking
- safe manipulation
- bumping
- bypass techniques
- RFID/radio attacks
- and more.
If you require financial assistance in order to run such a workshop (eg. to purchase a large number of key blanks and files to teach impressioning techniques) please let us know in your submission and we'll try to help you out.
