The EC-Council Summit (formerly known as CAST Summit) is designed with one purpose in mind, to enrich security professionals with the skills and knowledge surrounding the ever-evolving information security landscape. Attendees get to choose from a selection of highly technical and advanced training workshops led by subject matter experts and industry practitioners, covering essential security topics such as penetration testing, cryptography, network defense, application security, mobile hacking and forensics, crimeware attribution, etc. The Summit concludes with a one-day training seminar that is specially designed to comprise a few mini-lectures, and allows for participants to actually learn, and not just listen or be rushed through a short presentation.
