Submission guideline
BSides is an open, international event, the official conference language for all talks, trainings and workshops (as well as submitted abstracts) is English to ensure our foreign friends don't feel all sad panda about missing things.
Time slots
We are currently seeking a selection of presentations (30 or 60 minutes) and shorter (15-minute) lightning talks.
Relevant topics
Topics of interest include (but are in no way limited to) the following:
- Information technology

- Innovative attack / defense strategies
