What is BlueHat?BlueHat is a by-invitation-only Microsoft security conference aimed at bringing Microsoft security professionals and external security researchers together in a relaxed environment to promote the sharing of ideas and social networking. BlueHat is a cutting-edge conference aimed at improving the security of Microsoft products. BlueHat continuously seeks out new and innovative material, highlighting important emergent technologies, techniques, and industry best practices. Who attends?The audience consists of a multinational mix of professionals involved on a daily basis with security work including security product vendors, security researchers, security officers, members of security response teams, past BlueHat speakers, and some press. To the external community, BlueHat is by invitation only―not because there aren't a slew of diverse minds who wouldn't be excellent participants and speakers, but because there is a limited capacity and the BlueHat Planning Team looks to people who are exploring areas we're interested in or who need to be brought together for strategic networking to fill these spots. Who presents?While there is an internal Call for Papers, there is no BlueHat external CFP. Speakers are invited to submit papers on a case-by-case basis based on what’s cutting edge and relevant in security and privacy to the current Microsoft threat landscape. The security research community presenting at Microsoft BlueHat consists of individuals contributing to thought leadership in many security-related areas, to name a few: - Vulnerability economy
- Web application security
- Mobile/Wireless devices
- Crimeware
- Penetration testing and fuzzing
- Architecture flaws
- Network design and compromise
- Reverse engineering
- Exploit development
- Intrusion prevention
- Cryptography
- Lions and tigers and bears
