Welcome back to The MLSecOps Podcast for this week's episode, “Everything You Need to Know About Hacker Summer Camp 2023.”
This week, our show is hosted by Protect AI's Chief Information Security Officer, Diana Kelley, and Diana talks with two more longtime security experts, Chloé Messdaghi and Dan McInerney, about all things related to what the security research community fondly refers to as Hacker Summer Camp.
The group discusses various events held throughout the course of this exciting week in Las Vegas, including what to expect at Black Hat [USA 2023] and DEF CON [31].
(1:21) What is Hacker Summer Camp Week and what are the various events and Cons that take place during that time?
(3:58) It’s my first time attending Black Hat, DEF CON, Hacker Summer Camp Week, etc.: where can I find groups to attend with or to help me navigate where to go and what events to attend?
(9:53) Advice: if it’s my first time attending Black Hat, what other advice is there for me? What should I be thinking about?
(13:25) If I attend Black Hat, does that mean I’m automatically able to attend DEF CON or how does that work? (TL;DR separate passes are needed for each event)
(14:14) Are certain personas more welcomed at specific conferences?
(15:49) What are some interesting panel talks we should know about?
(20:53) There are a couple of other conferences going on during “Summer Camp Week” - BSides Las Vegas, Squadcon, Diana Initiative. What are those? When are they taking place? Can I go to all of them? How does that work?
(23:26) What AI/ML security trends are happening? What should I be looking for at Black Hat and DEF CON this year in terms of talks and research?
(28:55) How can I determine if a particular talk is going to be worth my time?
(32:54) Any other tips on how to stay healthy and safe (both physical and electronic safety) throughout the week?
