BSides San Diego is an Information Security conference that is not like any other conference. We’re a 100% volunteer-organized event, put on by and for the community. We do not have paid speaking engagements and all speakers are selected by the BSides SD committee for their content and interest that it brings to the community.
BSides San Diego is a non-profit organization designed to advance the body of Information Security knowledge, by providing an annual, two-day, open forum for discussion and debate for security engineers and their affiliates. We produce a conference that is a source of education, collaboration, and continued conversation for information technologists and those associated with this field. The technical and academic presentations at BSides San Diego are given in the spirit of peer review and advanced knowledge dissemination. This allows the field of Information Security to grow in breadth and depth, and continue in its pursuit of highly advanced scientifically based knowledge.
BSides San Diego isn't another "talk at you" conference. Everyone at BSides is a participant. The security researchers, engineers, analysts, and business leaders who present at BSides San Diego are looking to engage all of our participants and be engaged by the ideas of the community. They want your feedback, opinions, and questions.
Our speakers don't talk at you, they converse with you! Come be a part of the conversation!
