What we’re about
This Meetup is part of the Pacific Hackers Association (PHA) nonprofit organization. This 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization fosters success in aligning veterans and underserved communities with hands-on mentorship, technical training, guidance, best practices, and job placement assistance for people seeking careers in the Cyber Security industry.
We talk about white hat hacking and cybersecurity in our group. Our focus is grassroots hacking culture, techniques, hands-on exploitation, cyber defense, digital rights, and civil liberties. We welcome everybody without a technical background in IT, the security industry, or a college degree to attend our meetings. We encourage everyone to join us and help us build an active group with events and projects for the community.
