Mumbai Situation Update:
We have come across
an unfortunate situation of terror attacks in the city of
Mumbai, India with just few days to go for the AVAR 2008
Conference in New Delhi. We have been monitoring the situation
and hope for a speedy normalization of the situation. We have
consulted and verified with the hotel authorities to be sure of
safety and security of all the conference delegates and overall
security for the
event.
All the preparations are going on as usual and there are no
changes in the plans of AVAR 2008 Conference. We are in touch
with the hotel people in New Delhi and they have confirmed that
they have increased the security, multifold.
I take this opportunity to thank all those who had called us and
sent emails to express concern and supported us. Almost all of
them who contacted us have shown willingness to visit New Delhi.
On a positive note, in spite of all this, we are seeing new
delegates being registered, which shows the interest for the
event.
At this hour of crises we hope to get your continued support for
the event and we as an organizing committee of the conference
hope to see you all at New Delhi and make this event successful.

Welcome to the
AVAR 2008 International Conference in New Delhi, INDIA.
This is the largest Asia- Pacific conference for anti malware technologies. It is the first time this
conference will be held in India.
AVAR is a non-profit organization whose primary objective is to prevent
the spread and the damage caused by malware programs. AVAR now is comprised of members from 15 countries/regions
including countries not just from the Asia-Pacific area, but from all over the world. This shows that the anti malware
research activities of AVAR have extensive support from many countries, corporations, and individuals.
|
AVAR has spent a lot of effort fighting malware programs over the past ten years.
During these years, the objective
of malware programs has changed from simple file crush programs to using malware programs as tools
for stealing
corporate secrets, private information and simply "money".
To prevent these crimes, AVAR 2008 will provide possibly the best
opportunity to learn about the latest anti malware technology and to discuss major issues of worldwide
information security technology. I hope you will join us and benefit from this conference.
I look forward to meeting you at AVAR 2008 in New Delhi, India.

Welcome to
New Delhi, venue of 11th AVAR conference. It gives us great pleasure to
host this event for the very first time in India, or to be precise in South East Asia.
AVAR has emerged as a major platform, not only for the security professionals
across the globe, but to everybody for whom security is a concern.
Having this conference in India is very special as we are confident that, this will
further strengthen awareness about security in what is now popularly referred to
as "World's Back office".
|
I hope that the discussions and the papers presented in AVAR 2008
,
will enhance
our ability to offer a more secure computing
environment. I would like to thank all AVAR members for giving us the opportunity to host
this conference in India.
I look forward to meeting you at AVAR 2008 in New Delhi, India.
