About uCon

uCon is a vendor-neutral and single track conference on hacking, technology and information and telecommunication security.

uCon will be held again in 28th of February 2009 -- three days after the best street carnival in the world, in Recife, Brazil, and aims to bring together academics, hackers and information security enthusiasts from all over the country to share cutting-edge ideas and thoughts about their latest developments and techniques in the field.
Attendees will have the opportunity to network with like-minded people during social events, such as lunch break and aftercon party and during the capture the flag competition.

This event is part of a larger effort at CIn-UFPE to create a "Permanent Forum on Cybersecurity and The Public Domain", the aim of which is to discuss contemporary themes related to internet security, privacy, intellectual property in the digital age, and cyberlaw. The Forum will be run by the Cybersecurity Laboratory at CIn-UFPE, and will include participants from academia, industry, government and privacy rights organizations.

The computer security landscape in Brazil will be forever changed. Prepare yourself!
