OFFICIAL PROGRAM has been announced for HACKTIVITY2023 NOW+NEXT!
Hi Folks, we are thrilled to announce the official program of #Hacktivity2023 NOW+NEXT! We have received tons of excellent papers and the Program Committee had a hard time selecting the best of them. This time we’ll have 36 speakers from 20 countries and they will hold 28 talks and 10 workshop sessions, so the international atmosphere and the professional content are guaranteed as always.
The upcoming event will take place at the usual venue, MOM Cultural Center, Budapest between 5 & 6 October 2023.
On the first day, Hacktivity NOW there will be a usual conference with mainly software-security-related topics, but on the second day – Hacktivity NEXT, IoT, embedded, and automotive security will be in focus. We’ll have a lot of fun stuff, with exciting games and stunning exhibitor activities.
At #Hacktivity2023 NOW+NEXT there will be 10 different comprehensive workshop sessions (2 hours long each) during the conference. Participants will be able to register for the sessions online 1 week before the conference.
This year we’ll have the so-called HackCenter again (moving from the first floor to the Security Dome on the second day), a heaven for hackers who want to solve some exciting challenges, share their thoughts with each other, look for a solution to a specified problem, or just have questions about a certain topic.
If you like CTF games, you will have the opportunity to try your skills at the conference! On Friday, find the QR code for the pre-qual! The first and second players can participate in the CUJO AI SPEED HACKING COMPETITION starting Saturday afternoon at the HackCenter (Security Dome). Eight easy-medium difficulty challenges must be solved in less than 90 minutes to win the CTF. This is interesting because players’ screens will be displayed on a projector. Conference attendees can follow how the best players play CTF in real time. Two commentators will spice up the competition to make things even more exciting. The first one to solve all or the most challenges will win a Playstation 5! Bring your web browser + intercept proxy to hack, or we can also provide a Kali jump box, accessible via browser (noVNC).
POP-UP TALKS WANTED! At the Hackcenter there will be also 5-10 minutes long pop-up talks where hackers can present their ideas or try their presentation skills. Do you have a topic or an idea that’s not fully developed? Bring it in and we’ll help you work it out! Maybe you can finalize and present it at the next BSidesBUD conference! Send an e-mail to cfp@hacktivity.com to get on the schedule!
Make sure to get your ticket on time and join us in October for a great Hacktivity conference!
Stay tuned for more exciting information about #Hacktivity2023 NOW+NEXT!
Best regards,
The Hacktivity Team
