Source – Boston

SOURCE Conference is the first and only conference that combines advanced technology and application security practices with the business of security in an intimate and manageable environment.

Bigger is not always better! Over the years, the members of the SOURCE team have attended numerous conferences and found the same thing – the conferences were often so big and had so many people that it was difficult to identify key talent, thought leaders, business visionaries, and high level security practitioners. SOURCE avoids these problems by maintaining an intimate and manageable environment to give our attendees access to key players and high value, relevant information.

Shmoocon – Washington DC

Different – ShmooCon is an annual east coast hacker convention hell-bent on offering three days of an interesting atmosphere for demonstrating technology exploitation, inventive software and hardware solutions, and open discussions of critical infosec issues. The first day is a single track of speed talks called One Track Mind. The next two days bring three tracks: Build It, Break It and Bring It On.

Affordable – ShmooCon is about high quality without the high price. Keep in mind that space is limited and we’ve sold out quickly every year.

Accessible – ShmooCon is held in Washington, DC at the Washington Hilton Hotel, just a few short blocks from the DC metro. Fly into DCA, IAD or BWI or take a train to Union Station and you’re just a short cab ride away from the con.

Entertaining – Brain melting from all the cool tech you’re learning? Be sure to check out the other events running during ShmooCon, including the Hacker Arcade, ShmooCon Labs, Hack-or-Halo and more. Saturday night is party night, where typically we throw an off site bash just to shake things up a bit.

Security B-Sides – San Fransico

Each BSides is a community-driven event built for and by information security community members. The goal is to expand the spectrum of conversation beyond the traditional confines of space and time. It creates opportunities for individuals to both present and participate in an intimate atmosphere that encourages collaboration. It is an intense event with discussions, demos, and interaction from participants. It is where conversations for the next-big-thing are happening. We’ve loosely based the concept on the BarCamp format… because it works.
