TISC '08 is cancelled

It is with great disappointment that we must cancel the United Space Alliance 2008 Technology for Information Security Conference (TISC '08) scheduled for October 6-8 at the Galveston Island Convention Center. Galveston Island has been devastated by Hurricane Ike and the overall impact to the Texas gulf coast (e.g., infrastructure, businesses, and communities) make it impossible for us to relocate this event in another local venue.

Refunds

The Galveston Island Convention Center requests that attendees not call the hotel to cancel their guestroom reservations; all room reservations have automatically been cancelled due to cancellation of the conference. Any money paid in advance for room reservations will be refunded. In addition, USA will ensure all TISC '08 registration fees are refunded.

Again, we thank you for your support of TISC '08 and we regret any inconvenience to you or your organization as a result of its cancellation.

If you have any questions, please contact: Marg Cubero.

Sincerely,

Ron Harris
Conference Chair.
