A promising technical case study from VeriSign Inc. scientist Phillip Hallam-Baker -- "Unlinkable Identifiers: Privacy Protection in the Identity 2.0 World;" AUTH-403, Gold Room 307 -- promises to be of interest for those concerned with smart cards, radio frequency identification and national ID card efforts. Side-by-side talks dig into the future of malware and its perpetrators: "Money Change$ Everything: New Motivations and Trends in Malware Development" (HT1-403) and "Spam Botnets and Spyware: The Next Generation" (HT2-403) take place in Green Rooms 102 and 104, respectively. And the recent rash of options-backdating scandals gets infosecurity scrutiny from the panel presenting "The Options Backdating Fiasco: Time-Based Data Control Issues Lead to Compliance Problems, Shareholder Lawsuits and Criminal Indictments" (LAW-403, Burgundy Room 403). A fine lead-in to lunch. Now, where'd you leave the rolly?
