We are very excited to announce that the closing keynote for
VB2019
will be delivered by Haroon Meer and Adrian Sanabria of
Thinkst
, the company that was founded by Haroon and recently joined by Adrian.
Haroon
is a long-time researcher and public speaker, best known for his thought-provoking ideas on security research and the industry alike. (We don’t know why he has never spoken at the Virus Bulletin conference before!) His colleague and fellow keynote speaker is a VB veteran:
Adrian
gave a well-received presentation at VB2016 on the future of endpoint security.
Aside from the closing keynote, we are also excited to announce the addition of
a talk
on the evolution of attacks against payment systems, in which Saher Naumaan (
BAE Systems Applied Intelligence
) and Irving Méreau (
SWIFT
) will provide an inside view of attacks against payment systems. Last year, Saher presented a
VB conference paper
on wipers.
These two new sessions are added to the more than 40 talks that are already on the programme – one of which features research that made the tech news last night via a
TechCrunch
write-up
:
Cybereason
researchers Amit Serper and Mor Levi will discuss their investigation into ‘
Operation SoftCell
‘, an attack against telecommunication providers from around the world.
