      ACMBUL's FIRST INTERNATIONAL COMPUTER VIRUS PROBLEMS AND
                      ALTERNATIVES CONFERENCE

             5-8 April, 1993     -     Varna, Bulgaria

The   purpose  of  the  1993  International  Computer  Virus
Conference is to provide  a  forum  for  anti-virus  product
developers,   researchers   and   academicians  to  exchange
information  among  themselves,  students  and  the  public.  ICVC'93
will  consist of open forums, distinguished keynote speakers, and  the
presentation  of  high-quality  accepted papers.   A  high degree of
interaction and discussion among Conference participants  is
expected,  as  a  workshop-like setting is promoted.

Because   ICVC'93   is   a  not-for-profit  activity  funded primarily
by  registration  fees,  all   participants   are expected to have
their organizations bear the costs of their expenses and registration.
Accommodations will be  available at reduced rates for conference
participants.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

The   conference   is   intended   for   computer   security
researchers,  managers,  advisors,  EDP  auditors,   network
administrators,  and help desk personnel from government and industry,
as   well   as   other   information   technology professionals
interested in computer security.
