A New Technical Colloquium Format

In principle, the TC event is restricted to FIRST members only. Nevertheless, since this will be a joint event with other CSIRT initiatives in the region, there will be two additional events adjacent to the TC in order to achieve non-FIRST-members as well. These two events are:

Security Workshop

The latest issues in incidents response and prevention, vulnerabilities analysis, forensics and related aspects of computer security will be addressed at this open workshop.

Additionally, a full-day hands-on course will be offered conducted by respected experts who will give the attendees – beginners and experienced - an opportunity to acquire in-depth knowledge on relevant issues of a specific topic.

This workshop aims to:

  • stimulate the CSIRT development in the region and reach out to potential FIRST members and interested parties.
  • participants (FIRST members and non-members) to share information experiences, viewpoints and information in different security topics.
  • FIRST members to interact with Latin American CSIRT community for better know ongoing projects in incident handling area as well as other CSIRT initiatives in the region
