About the APWG eCrime Researchers Summit
The Anti-Phishing Working Group eCrime Researchers Summit was
conceived by APWG Secretary General Peter Cassidy in 2006 as a
comprehensive venue for the presentation of the state-of-the-art basic
and applied research into electronic crime, engaging every aspect of
its development (technical, behavioral, social and legal) as well as
technologies and techniques for its detection, related forensics and
its prevention. The eCRS, brings together
the most heterogeneous community of counter-eCrime stakeholders to
confer over the latest research, to foster collaborations and to
provide a convenient venue for funding agencies to connect with
leading principal investigators in the field. Academic and industrial
researchers appeared at the APWG's door at the institution's genesis,
delineating phishing's contemporary nature and speculating on probable
evolutionary paths. In fact, many of the exploits being animated by
contemporary phishers were predicted by researchers in the past,
giving the counter-eCrime stakeholding community today language and
concepts with which to grasp the threat at hand. The APWG established
the eCRS to honor that contribution, foster its spirit and to organize
the creative energy of researchers that would eventually overwhelm the
APWG's other meeting venues. The eCRS is a collaborative project of
its sponsoring institutions, its chairs, committee members, reviewers,
the APWG and its sponsors and, of course, the researchers who share
their findings. The APWG gives its thanks to all who are making eCRS a
keystone event in the field and to all of those who have helped
establish it. And to all of our new collaborators and contributors:
welcome. |
