REcon is a computer security conference with a focus on reverse engineering and advanced exploitation techniques. It is held annually in Montreal, Canada, and as of this year, a new edition of the conference was held in Brussels, Belgium. The conference offers a single track of presentations over the span of three days along with technical training sessions held before the presentation dates. Technical training varies in length between two and four days.

Registration for the conference and training is now open. You can register at: https://tickets.recon.cx/reconmtl/reconmtl17/

Attendees help define the event. They have always been–and always will be–those looking to learn something new, share ideas, and unwind in a welcoming environment. We are now inviting speakers to submit proposals for this year’s talks.

As of this year many foreign travelers to Canada will require an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) prior to entering the country. Please check the following website to find out if this applies to you: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/visas.asp

This year we have another great set of trainings available:

2-Day trainings (June 14-15, 2017): IC Reverse Engineering 101 by Olivier Thomas Mobile and Telecom Applied Hacking and Reverse Engineering by P1Sec

4-Day trainings (June 12-15, 2017): Reverse Engineering Malware by Nicolas Brulez Windows Internals for Reverse Engineers by Alex Ionescu Hardware Hacking (Advanced) by Dmitry Nedospasov The ARM Exploit Laboratory by Saumil Shah Windows Kernel Rootkits Techniques and Analysis by Bruce Dang MacOS Sierra and iOS 10 Kernel Internals for Security Researchers by Stefan Esser Botnet Takeover Attacks for Reverse Engineers by Brett Stone-Gross and Tillmann Werner Security of System Firmware from Attacker and Defender Perspectives by Yuriy Bulygin, Oleksandr Bazhaniuk Binary Literacy: Systematic Static Reverse Engineering by Rolf Rolles
