What is BSides ?
Each BSides is a community-driven framework for building events for and by information security community members. The goal is to expand the spectrum of conversation beyond the traditional confines of space and time. It creates opportunities for individuals to both present and participate in an intimate atmosphere that encourages collaboration. It is an intense event with discussions, demos, and interaction from participants. It is where conversations for the next-big-thing are happening.

Keynote:
Rob Joyce
Chief, Tailored Access Operations
National Security Agency
Mr. Rob Joyce began serving as the Chief of the National Security Agency’s Tailored Access Operations (TAO) organization in April 2013. As the Chief of TAO, Rob leads an organization that provides unique, highly valued capabilities to the Intelligence Community and the Nation’s leadership. His organization is the NSA mission element charged with providing tools and expertise in computer network exploitation to deliver foreign intelligence. This information is used in a range of activities – from national policy-making to military operations that support our warfighters around the world, 24 hours a day.
Rob has served at the NSA for over 26 years, holding various leadership positions within both NSA missions: the Information Assurance and Signals Intelligence Directorates. Prior to becoming the Chief of TAO, Rob served as the Deputy Director of the Information Assurance Directorate (IAD) at NSA, where he led efforts to harden, protect and defend the Nation’s most critical National Security systems and improve cybersecurity for the nation.
Mr. Joyce began his career as an engineer and is a technologist at heart. He holds a Bachelors Degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Clarkson University in 1989 and earned a Masters Degree in Electrical Engineering from The Johns Hopkins University in 1993. He was elevated to the Senior Executive Service in 2001. Throughout his career with NSA, he has been the recipient of two Presidential Rank Awards, one meritorious and one at the distinguished level.
Rob is a Scout Master and enjoys participating with the Boy Scouts in the annual World Championship of Punkin Chunkin, building a contraption to fling pumpkins for distance. Over the Christmas holidays, Rob runs a computerized light display synchronized to music, which is likely visible from the international space station.

Chiron’s Pyramid Capture the Flag (CTF) competition is an individually played and highly challenging cybersecurity experience hosted within a contained virtual network using player’s own laptops or the limited laptops provided. Registration will be open all day. Players will be able to access the Pyramid throughout the day for any period of time, allowing opportunities to attend talks and other events at the conference. Each player will be provided a Chiron Linux "attack" VM on a USB stick that contains 20 additional CTF challenges for players to work on from anywhere. Access to the scoreboard and Pyramid of 15 target hosts will be provided through a wired connection to a closed network. The Pyramid hosts are visualized on one or more projector screens that reflect the captured status in real-time. There are 4 levels on the Pyramid that increase in difficulty and represent deeper networked hosts. Scoring will be recorded across three categories: most hosts captured, highest level on the pyramid, and most flags captured. Prizes will be presented in-person to winners in each category at the end of the competition. Top 5 finalists in each category are also provided a set of coveted Chiron swag for their notable achievements.
FALE

FALE
(@lockFALE)came together around a and security measures encountered
daily.
Augusta Locksports (@PickAugusta)was started in 2011 by Rory Rezzelle (@roryrezzelle)out of a desire to learn and educate others on physical security and it’s failings. Meetings started with just a handful of others who would meet monthly at a restaurant to pick locks, talk about life, and just enjoy a night out. Augusta Locksportsbegan helping at local security conventions and the interest in our group began to grow. In 2015, Augusta Locksportsbecame an incorporated nonprofit organization and have begun teaching at more events, holding our own contests, and helping show how effective the security you rely on daily actually is in the world.
FALE and Augusta Locksportswill be hosting a Lockpick Village where folks can come by to talk about physical security, learn to pick locks or talk about advanced picking techniques and tips. Plenty of locks and spare picks to play with, so be sure to stop by!
