Our final DC4131 Dojo of the year was a great success. Many people joined to gain valuable knowledge and hands on experience with RFID hacking with the numerous Proxmark devices we had available. We want to thank once more Andreas for hosting the night!

Do YOU have great knowledge and experience in a security area? Do you value and wish to give back to the local hacker community? Get in in touch with us and we’d love to support make it happen at a future Dojo event! 🙂

Hot off the back of the DEF CON DC4131 hike 2019 (which was really awesome and good times had 🙂 ), this coming month hosts your last DEF CON Dojo for the year, where the topic will be RFID Hacking 2.0, a continuation from the introductory session held earlier in the year. No longer are we satisfied just easily hacking into Amazon offered home security solutions… this time we enter the world of UHF RFID tags and far more common real world examples of how (in)secure solutions are out there utilising them. We have community member and Proxmark Geek Andreas L kindly hosting this workshop and we are super excited to learn the ways of the RFID HAxOr Jedis, not one to miss! Once again, open to everyone! Details can be found HERE.

It’s also a great month for DC4131 official members, we have 2 events going on:

• Saturday 21st September is the 2nd installment of the awesome FPV Drone Racing Workshop, spaces are limited so be sure to check out the invite if not done so already.
• Saturday 28th September (With Saturday 5th October as a back up date) is our official yearly DEF CON hike, with an unofficial BBQ after for those wanting 🙂 Again, members should have already received these details so would be awesome to see another great hiking crew turnout this year!

Time: From 18:30
