S2 - Episode 009 – DEFCON – An Exhaustive Guide to Hacker Summer Camp – (with Dr. Louis DeWeaver)
This very special episode is our contribution to all existing or soon-to-be DEFCON attendees!
We go deep under the covers to crack the shell of all things Hacker Summer Camp in this definitive, ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW, and truly exhaustive guide.
We join forces with our good friend, who we met at Hacker Summer Camp, Dr. Louis DeWeaver. Louis is a former professor and a seasoned cybersecurity expert who brings years of knowledge and many trips to DEFCON to this conversation. His upbeat personality is one of a kind! We like to say that Louis could definitely sell ice cubes to Eskimos!
We start out with a brief history of DEFCON, talk about the basics on venue, cost, and of course the backstory on how founder Jeff Moss (a.k.a. Dark Tangent) started the largest hacker conference on the planet. Then, we round out this information packed episode with a definitive guide of the most important things you’re going to WANT to know if you plant to head to the dessert to join in the fun.
We really hope you like this episode as much as we enjoyed putting it together!
Jason Popillion is a CISSP and serves as a CIO/CTO of a SaaS company and Kevin Pentecost is a CISSP, CISM, CEH, CPT, MPCS, MCSE, CCA, ITIL-F and serves as a Information Security Director for a Manufacturing company.
