Last week we enjoyed quite a wonderful HAXPO exhibition and HITB conference in
Amsterdam. A number of great talks could be heard at the main HITB conference
such as “Bootkit via SMS: 4G Access Level Security Assessment” or
“Stegosploit: Hacking with Pictures“. And not only that: there were also
several engaging hands-on workshops.
Apart from the main conference, there was the HAXPO – a hacker exhibition. At
this exhibition you could connect with people from different companies, get a
lot of merchandise, and also listen to several briefings on security and its
philosophy. Fortunately, we had the pleasure to present two of these briefings
and maybe you tested your web application skills at the ERNW booth.
There are lots of interesting places to visit in Amsterdam, but if you are there
between the 26th and the 29th of May, then our booth at HAXPO exhibition should
be your main destination.
HAXPO is a great exhibition, where you can
become up-to-date with the latest security technologies, attend various
workshops and get in touch with more than 35 IT and information security
companies. It will take place in the beautiful historical building “Beurs van
Berlage” in the center of Amsterdam. As usual, ERNW will take part in HAXPO. We
will be waiting for you in the Community Village section (booth NL-018). Come
visit and get to know more about us. You are invited to take our hacking
challenges, where the levels of complexity vary from beginners to advanced.
Furthermore, we will bring our KNX hacking suitcase!
Past month we (which is me and a group of other ERNW students, supported by some
of the “old” guys — I hope my team lead won’t yell at me for this 😉 ) attended
the Haxpo and Hack in the Box in Amsterdam. Starting from 28. May, we had three
days at this great conference (HITB) and exposition
(Haxpo). The two events took place in the former building of
the stock exchange in Amsterdam, called:
“Beurs van Berlage”. Upon entering the
building for the first time we were given details on where our booth was and
where the talks would take place — setting up our booth and planning the shifts
was just another thing to do before exploring the Haxpo area:
