What transmits from BSides JAX
→ full scheduleDeep technical transmissions from practitioners, researchers, and red/blue/purple teamers across InfoSec.
Hands-on training the day before launch. Bring a laptop, leave with new muscle.
Capture the Flag across the void. Solo or crews. Rookies welcome, sharks encouraged.
Lockpick, hardware hacking, SOC, and recruiter villages orbit the main tracks all day.
By the community, for the community.
BSides JAX is run entirely by volunteers. No corporate gatekeeping, no $2,000 badges, no pay-to-play talk slots. Just people who care about security, teaching what they know and learning from each other.
Affordable and independent. Free for vets, volunteers, and students. Loud about the things that matter.
