OUR HISTORY

Security BSides started in 2009 when some talented speakers couldn't fit into a major conference. So, we decided to make room for them. Our goal is to break down the typical barriers of conferences, allowing for more speakers, more topics, and more events. Since 2009 every state, and every country has held a Security BSides event. (Most states hold more than one per year.)

WHO WE ARE

BSides Connecticut started in 2011 with an all-volunteer crew. As more people learn about us, we've grown ever larger in size and scope. BSides events are about sharing and learning from each other. They're a platform for security experts and professionals to share ideas and make lasting connections. Each BSides event, including ours, is driven by the community. The idea is to take the conversation beyond the usual conference setting and encourage collaboration. It's a chance for participants to share their knowledge and learn from each other.
