Call for Presentations

  • Opening day
  • Submission deadline

The next OARC Spring Workshop will take place in Amsterdam on May 9th and 10th, the weekend before RIPE70. OARC is requesting proposals for presentations, with a preference for DDoS attack reports and mitigation techniques. Reports and field stories can cover DNS-based DDoS attacks, attacks to DNS infrastructure or side effects suffered by cache resolver operators.

This workshop intends to build from previous strong OARC workshops, where operational content and research is welcome. Presentations from DNS operators are particularly welcome, as well as from DNS researchers. All DNS-related subjects are accepted, introduction to new tools, visualizations, DNSSEC and novel uses of the DNS. If you are an OARC member, and have a sensitive topic you would like to present for members-only, we will accommodate those talks too. Adopting practice from other conferences, a timeslot for lighting talks will be available for short presentations (5 to 10 minutes).
