In a special treat open to all official DC4131 members, we are back once again with El Presidente Adi hosting another edition of his Soldering Workshop –

“Get ready to fire up your soldering iron and dive into the world of electronics! This hands-on workshop starts with the absolute basics—like what soldering is and how to do it safely (without any accidental burns!). From there, you’ll level up, learning how to solder cables, attach components to through-hole PCBs, and, best of all, create your very own project to take home! With plenty of practice time, you’ll leave feeling confident, skilled, and ready to tackle your next soldering adventure!” 🙂

Still not a DC4131 member, and would like to be? Take a look at the bottom of this page and drop us an email at membership[@]defcon-switzerland[.]org and we will come back to you with all the juicy details 🙂

 

And a shout out our friends hosting and organizing one of Switzerland’s largest InfoSec cons this year, the guys at Insomni’hak! And to all the community looking to join, it’s looking to be a good’un 😉 Enjoy!

You asked for it…. we are now delivering 😀That’s RIGHT! The Dojo’s are back baby! 😀

And what a better way to kick things off then to have an awesomely established collaboration with Hack The Box (HTB) Zürich, through our wonderful community member Antoine (shout out! :D) where we will provide opportunities for both you newly budding, yet also wise and experienced offensive pentesters to perform walkthroughs of various HTB curated boxes/challenges, with the aim to pick up and learn some new tips and tricks, as well as gain those precious hands on XP experience points to level up your hacking game.

We already have 3 events set and planned for the rest of this year, and as part of this collaboration, we are happy to announce that all interested DC4131 members get exclusive priority access to 10 available spots, based on a first-come, first serve basis. It is necessary to “sign up” up on the respective MeetUp event, stating your DC4131 membership, and even if all the spots are filled, there will be a waitlist available which will help secure you a space in the case of drop outs or future events. Please note that if not all DC4131 spaces are taken in the days leading up to the event, the spots will be released and made available to the public.

We really hope the start of these new Dojo events prove to be interesting and provide awesome, hands-on opportunities to not just build upon your sills, but do it with amazing people and environments around you! 🙂 Further, wider topic ranging Dojos are also in the mix to come, so watch this space 😉

Not a DC4131 member yet!? Now is your time! Drop us an email at board[@]defcon-switzerland[.]org stating you wish to become a member and we will come back to you with all the juicy details 🙂

************** Additional Events Info ***************

We are super close to Area41, the buzz and excitement is tangible 😀 We are sincerely looking forward to welcoming you lucky people who fought against the odds to procure a ticket and rub shoulders and listen to cutting edge research from the best (inter)national infosec community on the planet. The talks agenda has been finalised and published, and for those who can’t join in body, we will carry you in spirit, but also in bandwidth when we look to release the talk recordings on our YouTube channel soon after the event 🙂 We are lucky & honoured once more to have the con-recording master @Ministraitor “aka Cooper” behind the cameras!

Some say Dojo’s be on the horizon….. Watch this space 😉
