IOActive will be attending this year’s DEF CON taking place August 7 – 10 in Las Vegas, NV. Let us know if you will be attending! You can book a meeting in advance with one of our team members using our ‘advance meeting registration‘ webpage.
“THE hacker convention – the first DEF CON took place in June 1993 and today many attendees at DEF CON include computer security professionals, journalists, lawyers, federal government employees, security researchers, students, and hackers with a general interest in software, computer architecture, hardware modification, conference badges, and anything else that can be “hacked”. The event consists of several tracks of speakers about computer- and hacking-related subjects, as well as cyber-security challenges and competitions (known as hacking wargames). Contests held during the event are extremely varied and can range from creating the longest Wi-Fi connection to finding the most effective way to cool a beer in the Nevada heat.”
