Program Announcement - ISOC 1996 Symp. Netw. & Distr. Sys. Security



------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                THE INTERNET SOCIETY 1996 SYMPOSIUM ON
                NETWORK AND DISTRIBUTED SYSTEM SECURITY
                               (NDSS '96)

                          22-23 FEBRUARY 1996

            SAN DIEGO PRINCESS RESORT, SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA

The symposium will bring together people who are building software
and/or hardware to provide network and distributed system security
services.  The symposium is intended for those interested in the more
practical aspects of network and distributed system security, focusing
on actual system design and implementation, rather than in theory.  We
hope to foster the exchange of technical information that will
encourage and enable the Internet community to apply, deploy and
advance the state of the available security technology.

BEAUTIFUL SAN DIEGO PRINCESS RESORT

                              Location

The Symposium venue is the San Diego Princess Resort, a tropical
paradise on a forty-four acre island in Mission Bay, ten minutes from
the international airport.  Lush gardens landscaped with hundreds of
species of tropical and subtropical plants are always ablaze with color
and perfect for themed group events.  Charming pathways wander among
sparkling waterfalls, across quaint footbridges and sleepy lagoons
filled with water lilies and waterfowl.  A white sand beach curves
around the island for over a mile, and the award-winning grounds
encompass five swimming pools and six lighted tennis courts.

Spouses and family members can catch a convenient Harbor Hopper for a
quick trip to Sea World.  After the Symposium, plan to spend the
weekend visiting La Jolla, the world famous San Diego Zoo or Mexico,
only 30 minutes by car or Trolley.
