The Call for Proposals (CfP) is Now Open!
NorthSec covers the full spectrum of applied security. We try to take a practical approach to covering security topics, so we give priority to content that presents original research, and/or uses open source technology to teach participants new techniques. To get more information on what makes a good talk, see our CFP website.
