BSides Halifax is proud to announce their 3rd (nearly annual) Halifax BSides conference! This time IRL (in real life). Fresh off the heels of AtlSecCon, they are testing the waters for in-persons event with a small and intimate venue (the Halifax Central Library BMO room). But don't let the size fool you, this one-day event will be packed full of great talks for your fellow security enthusiast. Tickets will be very limited this year and are available for a minimum "donation" of $13.37 (see what they did there). As with their previous BSides, all proceeds go to Feed Nova Scotia, because have you seen grocery prices lately? They are looking forward to seeing everyone in just a few weeks!

We’re expanding a bit this year too — in addition to coffee and snacks throughout the day, lunch will be provided for all attendees. Expect a mix of familiar faces, new voices, and a fresh lineup of talks and activities. We’re excited to see everyone again this November and to continue […]
