Dear IAS Colleague,
I seek your help in spreading the word about NYU-Poly's annual CSAW event
that comprises of many security related competitions and getting your
students to participate. I also wonder if you can give your security class
some incentive to compete :-) In addition to graduate students, we are also
interested in getting undergraduate participation. I am including below an
email which could you please forward to your student population and
especially in present or past security classes. A poster for the event can
be found at http://isis.poly.edu/csaw/images/csaw08_flyer.pdf which you
could print and display in your lab, bulletin boards or campus office.
Thanks for your help!! nasir
