VB2002

Sophos announced today that it is a corporate sponsor of VB2002, the 12th Annual Virus Bulletin Conference, to be held in New Orleans, Louisiana (Sept 26 - 27 2002).

VB2002 is the only international event which specifically addresses the threat from computer viruses and features corporate and technical presentations in two parallel tracks. The conference attracts over 400 delegates and provides an opportunity for corporate users to discuss current threats and OS vulnerabilities with the industry's leading authorities.

Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant for Sophos Anti-Virus, will present his paper "E-bugs: should anti-virus products detect them?", discussing the issues surrounding intelligence agencies' use of viruses and backdoor Trojan horses to counter terrorism and crime.
