Call for Speakers
FIRST is looking for speakers that would like to present at the TC. We are most interested in new presentations and presenters, however important updates on prior work are also welcome. We strongly encourage any individual who has not spoken at a conference before to submit a proposal. The idea behind the TC is to encourage security teams and researchers talent to share their technical work in a friendly environment. While we give special consideration to local talent, submissions are welcome from anyone, anywhere.
Any novel ideas, techniques, case studies, or research related to incident and threat response are welcome. Some suggested topics are as follows:
- Threat actor groups & techniques
- Creative incident response techniques
- Indicators of compromise and how detect/mitigate
- Data analytics for security
- Criminal underground / Nation state
- Denial-of-service attacks and countermeasures
- Digital forensics
- Human-computer interaction, security, and privacy

All talks will be (45 mins + 10 for questions)
Send abstracts or any questions to: amsterdam-tc@first.org. We really want new ideas so don’t feel you have to part of a security vendors marketing team to submit!
Important Notes:
FIRST does not allow presentations with the aim of gaining the audience's interest in any commercial application, solution or product. In other words, NO MARKETING PRESENTATIONS.
