Further Discussion




Proposed gathering of the Security community Working Groups


    I’m concerned that the need for security and correctness in smart contract engineering is being outweighed by the pressure to deliver highly complex systems to anxious ICO investors. 
Following conversations at EdCon in Toronto, there’s a clear need for a gathering specifically focused on smart contract security. Here is my best attempt at outlining what I think this event would look like, as well as my open questions. 
Goals
To share knowledge to prevent and mitigate security risks facing smart…

IMO the first option of the UnConference sounds better but both options can be good.

@jpitts Can we create polls?

Yes that’s possible by clicking on options in the toolbar and then build poll.

These options don’t match the OC. Maybe it’s been edited?
I’m in favor of more discussion, fewer talks.
Talks which share experiences and learning, which then encourage follow up conversation are probably best.

How do we best facilitate that?

I was thinking about having talks planned like you stated, but maybe another idea would be to do a more dynamic mapping process EIP0-style of figuring out all the angles of what an audit should be and what is in scope vs. out of scope of an audit? Just have a really good philosophical discussion about it, at least for part of the time.
Thoughts?

Thanks guys for your signaling your attendance so far. At this point, we are nearing the capacity for the venue, so we have to temporarily waitlist anyone else on this posting who wants to attend.
We will send a better signup form in the very near future (hopefully beginning of next week) if we have some spare capacity. Those who have already replied above this comment, you are on our list. Anyone who replies below this comment will have to wait to confirm attendance.
Thank you for your patience.

Please put me on the wait list. @Ethernian
I would like to propose to create “Security Audit Protocols” - some kind of open and formalized best practices like medical protocols. Any security audit may claim to comply with one or more “Security Audit Protocols”.
It will makes trasparent for the customer what does “Security Audit” actually means.
Creating of such “Security Audit Protocol” should be desired outcome of the Gathering.

We’re going to have a workshop on Development Guidelines, which includes some standardization of the security assessment process (we’re avoiding the term audit as it lacks proper controls). Should be a great discussion!
Hopefully figure out some point today how many spots are left. I think everyone above this list has a decent chance of being included, depending on pending RSVPs. Will let you know!

Hi Etherian, this is Rex, we connected on AvEx.  I am working with Bryant on the guidelines and organization for the unconf.  Would be good to meet in person.

At this time our list is definitely closed. Those above this comment we are hoping to include, but no one further will be able to attend our event as we will already be beyond capacity.
Also, if you have already put yourself on the list but are unable to come, we would appreciate it if you could let me know (either PM or here) and I can take your name off the list. We would really appreciate it so we can make sure we know the logistics of the event the best we can!

@fubuloubu Hello Bryant.
I am kindly asking you to please “keep me in mind” and add me to the list of attendess if someone will be off the list. I have already bought tickets to Berlin. Will be very happy to attend this conference!

I apologize, but at this point we are definitely unable to take further attendees and there will be no waiting list as we are beyond capacity. I definitely appreciate the enthusiasm however.
We hope you are able to join us at DevCon, where we are working on similar workshops during the 4 day long event. We will be able to include many more people in these events and hope you will be able to join us so that we can work with you to make Ethereum’s security the best it can be!

I’ll also be in Toronto all next week in case anyone wants to talk security and consensus protocols

Yes. One of the workshops we will be discussing involves enabling others to run their own events a la FEM-style playbook tailored to our community.

@fubuloubu - Bryant, in terms of the “day-of”, do we need to bring a ticket of sorts or should we simply arrive at the venue with an ID?  Thanks!

Author: fubuloubu
Date: 2018-08-20T15:38:06.263Z

There will be a check-in desk with your name tags on it where someone will check you in. IDs would help.
