What is BSides?
Each BSides is a community-driven framework for building events by and for 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.

Security BSides is the first grass roots, DIY, open security conference in the world! Security BSides is a great combination of two event styles: structured anchor events and grass-roots geocentric events. BSides is where we can have conversations within a community that cares less about building ego and more about building careers and a true common body of knowledge, experience and wisdom. It is an international conference that takes place in multiple cities through out the year.
