The Biggest IT Security Event is back in Malaysia!

Hacker|Halted Asia Pacific 2011 is back in Malaysia this November 15 – 17, 2011, an event organized by EC-Council Academy, an IT Security training and certification body.

Held in Kuala Lumpur for the 6th time, the attendance expectation for Information Security professionals is very strong as there will be many elite ethical hackers attending to share the latest methodologies and tools in Information Security.

To celebrate the hosting of the biggest IT Security event, we are proud to give away your favorite gadgets which include the iPad2, Samsung Galaxy tab and many more when you sign up before 23 June 2011.

All I can say is this promotion is worth every cent you pay for. Why? First of all, Hacker Halted 2011 is the biggest IT Security event, presented by an international line up of speakers which are sure to blow our audience away! Aspects to be covered are such as Network Security, Digital Forensic, Web Application Security, Global Perspective of Cyber Security, Penetration Testing and Many more! You not only gain the knowledge needed but you gain the skills to be prepared to face real-world challenges.

What’s the next best thing? The gifts of course! We know how much you love these gadgets, and here we are to give them away! I know many are looking forward to get your hands on the iPad2. Even I myself wanted to grab one during the launching on the 2nd of March, 2011. Went over to Suria KLCC to visit the Apple reseller store, my heart stopped and jaw dropped by just looking at the queue!



Don’t worry about that never-ending queue because we will do it for you when you sign up for Hacker Halted 2011: Combo A, and hopefully I will be able to get mine at the same time too!

We are giving out gadgets when you sign up for conference, workshops, or any of the combos. The list of packages and gifts are as below;

Hacker Halted 2010 was a huge success. The number of attendees exceeded our expectations and the closer it was to the event, the more applicants came registering, and unfortunately, we had to limit the participants due to the ballroom’s space limitation. Our participants comfort is still our top priority to ensure everyone enjoys their experience at Hacker Halted.

As for this year, my advice is to register your seats as early as possible to avoid any disappointments! To those that missed Hacker Halted 2010, don’t make the same mistake again! We at EC-Council Academy are excited and we hope to see you at Hacker Halted 2011!
