B-Sides Orlando 2018

B-Sides Orlando 2018 is almost upon us. We are proud to announce Full Sail University will host B-Sides Orlando on April 7th, 2018.

This year our theme is steampunk. Look for elements of hackers in a time that never existed where steam power was the source of innovation instead of the transistor.
To that end this year we are focused on getting our attendees hands “dirty”. B-Sides Orlando 2018 will have workshops in ICS and SCADA, hands on demos with Software Defined Radios, hacker scavenger hunts, career building with resume review workshops, and a CTF 101 to help attendees learn how to compete in CTFs.
We look forward to you joining us for great talks, amazing demos, and fantastic workshops as B-Sides Orlando goes steampunk at Full Sail!
