"beersides" - precon party

For the last 2 years we have held a precon party and called it "beersides" (a play on the BSides name!).  They have been resounding successes and a great way to get the BSides vibe going.  There are a lot of people in Manchester for BSides so we decided to bring everyone together for a precon party.

 

​"beersides" will be drinks, talks, socialising and a darn good time.

 

So what to expect?

​​

Beers

Obviously.  We are in a bar, so you can expect to be able to buy beers, or whatever is your tipple.​  The venue is very good for cocktails...

There is no "beersides" sponsor for this event so it is a pay bar.

​

Timings

Wednesday 28th August

We have the upstairs room of the venue from 6:30pm

Talks starting around 7:30pm/8:00pm

​

Lightning Talks Schedule

We have hired the upstairs floor of the bar complete with project and sound system, so lets have some lightning talks.  Current planned talks are:

​

7:30pm - Jonathan Ross - "Something smells a bit phishy... and it isn't my armpits for once"

 

8:00pm - Ken Munro & David Lodge - “Lodge’s Dodgy Dogging Apps - A Security Assessment of Pet Apps

​

8:30pm - David Middlehurst - "C3 - A sneak preview of a new open-source C2 framework"

 

9:00pm - Nicky Bloor - "Oh sh!t that’s a network protocol"

​

Socialising​

There will be loads people form the InfoSec, Cyber, the Hacker community, so it will be a great place to catch up with old mates and make news ones.  It's not all talk talk talk, there will be plenty of opportunity to socialise.

​

Food

Yes the venue sells food - so don't go hungry - order some.

​

Capacity

The event is free to attend, but there is a limit on the venue capacity (we didn't reach it last year, but who knows this year...)

Entrance is on a first come first served.  When the venue is full it's full.... The good news is there is a 2nd bar downstairs.
