BSides Halifax is proud to announce our 4th (becoming annual!) Halifax BSides conference! The event will once again be held IRL (in real life), but this time in the fall on Thursday, November 14th, 2024.

For this go round we are partnerning with ShiftKey Labs and will be holding the event at Dalhousie's Computer Science building. As always, all are welcome, be they battle-hardened analysts, DC902 stalwarts, application security experts, or those new to the field. As we did last year, we are offering tickets for a minimum donation of $13.37 (we'll keep this price point as long as we possibly can).

We'll have some old favorites and a fresh batch of talks and activities to enjoy. Get your ticket before they're gone! (Agenda will be released when confirmed, though the event will […]
