If you're an American hacker, you probably know about Defcon, but you may not have heard of Chaos Communication Congress.
This year, Varonis sponsored my trip C3 so I could share the best parts of my favorite hacker conference.
C3 is a long-running hacker conference that predates Defcon, attracting hackers from around the world for discussions on technology, security, art, and culture.
This year marked the 37th C3 conference with a return to Hamburg after several years in Liepzig, Germany.
For my second year at C3, I created this beginner's guide to getting the most out of C3, highlighting the best talks and projects I saw at 37c3. Hopefully I'll see you there next year!
Talks mentioned:
What I Learned from Loab: AI as a creative adversary - youtube.com/watch?v=hJxRD4YX1RU
Sucking dust and cutting grass: reversing robots and bypassing security - youtube.com/watch?v=56N1dYfdVf4
Unlocked! Recovering files taken hostage by ransomware - youtube.com/watch?v=h65gpGJ7xO8
Tor censorship attempts in Russia, Iran, Turkmenistan - youtube.com/watch?v=g5ZiBYR-1MM
