The Amphion Forum is an open, vendor-neutral and cross-industry gathering of industry leaders and technologists building the foundations of the new extended enterprise - those new organizations that transcend traditional boundaries by leveraging disruptive device security and mobile security technologies. The Forum brings together mobility companies with hackers and app security experts, as well as technology leaders from business, academia, and the public sector to discuss the opportunities-and sobering threats-presented by the proliferation of mobile devices and the Internet of Things. The event, characterized by planners as "part TED and part Meetup" has grown from a single day to a two-day program, with expanded content and networking opportunities for the security, mobility and hacking 'digerati.' Talks will range from the deeply technical to the big-picture strategic, with topics such as: iOS 7 security; threats to critical infrastructure; Android (News - Alert) hacks; app-wrapping and mobile code injection; mobile device maagement (MDM) and mobile application management (MAM); secure containers; mobile hypervisors; and the future of app security automation. Selected talks include:

"That's the recipe we need for solving the tough interdisciplinary problems of mobile security and app management." Other Amphion Forum sponsors include the Security Innovation Network (SINET), Appthority and Secure Access Technologies. Registration for Amphion Forum 2013 is now open.
