Hosted by: FIRST and OASIS
6-8 December

Website:
http://eu17.first-oasis- conference.org
Deadline for Proposals:
16 August

OASIS and FIRST will join forces in December to present a two-day program geared toward bringing together cyber threat intelligence experts from industry, government agencies, and CSIRTs worldwide to share experiences, debate, and collaborate on strategies, tactics, and practices to effectively protect your organization.

We invite you to join the conversation. If you have ideas and experiences which you feel would be helpful to people who are responsible for setting their organization’s cyber strategy, please submit an abstract. Presentations should target a technical audience from various disciplines, such as security teams, commercial security vendors, open-source security developers, CSIRTs, and maintainers of open security standards. Stories of how your organization integrated threat intelligence to tangibly improve your security, stories of failed efforts and lessons learned, ideas for fresh approaches, new research findings, as well as analyses of policy trends are all welcome.
Topics of interest
The Program Committee is particularly interested in submissions that share Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) experiences and knowledge, such as case studies addressing:
?
Obstacles leading to the success or failure of an initiative
?
How to use CTI data
?
Policy issues impacting the sharing and usage of CTI data
?
Tools for sharing and using CTI
?
How to deploy proactive and reactive threat intelligence automation to save time and resources
?
Emerging exchange standards for CTI data
?
New models and techniques to classify information (e.g. Information Exchange Policy (IEP)) in an effort to improve incident response
?
Evaluation and implementation of new sharing models — including their economic impact and benefits
?
Recommendations on how to validate and qualify the information shared — highlighting techniques for dealing with large amounts of CTI
?
Success and failure stories integrating CTI into an organisation
?
Legal and technical challenges when sharing data under new legislations such as NIS and GDPR and between the EU and other countries (US and alike), including under Mutual Legal Assistance Treaties (MLATs)

We will accept presentations either 25 or 45 minutes in length, including Q&A. Panel discussions can be 60 minutes in length.

The Program Committee will peer-review all proposals and reserves the right to adapt or restructure submissions to ensure an interesting and compelling program. Marketing presentations  will not  be considered.

Lightning talk sessions will take place over the two day program. Talks will be limited to 5-10 minutes. Lightning talk submissions will take place during the conference.
