Bring the thing you took apart.
The groups behind this room spend the rest of the year pentesting AI-integrated systems, pulling secrets out of hardware, taking malware apart, and re-pinning locks just to beat them again. That is the register. Original research, war stories, side projects — the thing you built or broke and have been waiting to show someone who would get it.
The room is mixed: founders, developers, students, executives and security people, all at once. Nothing needs dumbing down — just tell us who you are aiming at, and do not assume everyone knows what a C2 is.
- An AI-integrated system you got into
- Secrets you pulled out of hardware
- Malware you took apart, and what it was really doing
- A supply-chain compromise you traced
- Wireless or RF research
- A lock you re-pinned yourself and then beat
What we will turn down
- Product pitches and sales decks
- Compliance overviews and general awareness content
- Anything that would work as a vendor's marketing webinar
This goes for sponsors too. Sponsorship does not buy a speaking slot.
Or help us run it.
Five hours of drop-in tables only works because people turn up early and stay late. You do not need to be an expert at anything — most of it is being a friendly human who knows where things are.
Things that need hands: the resume and career corner, setup and teardown, keeping the workshop room on time, and being the person a first-time visitor can ask what any of this is.
