USENIX Security '16

LISA: Where systems engineering and operations professionals share real-world knowledge about designing, building, and maintaining the critical systems of our interconnected world.

The LISA conference has long served as the annual vendor-neutral meeting place for the wider system administration community. The LISA14 program recognized the overlap and differences between traditional and modern IT operations and engineering, and developed a highly-curated program around 5 key topics: Systems Engineering, Security, Culture, DevOps, and Monitoring/Metrics. The program included 22 half- and full-day training sessions; 10 workshops; and a conference program consisting of 50 invited talks, panels, refereed paper presentations, and mini-tutorials.

Thanks to everyone who joined us in Austin, TX, for USENIX Security '16. We hope you enjoyed the event. As part of our commitment to open access to research, the full Proceedings, video and audio recordings, and presentation slides are available on the USENIX Security '16 technical sessions page.
