Girls Hack Village presents SquadCon is a three day conference that seeks to bring gender diverse perspectives of the contributions, experiences, and issues facing the industry's other. Hackers that are new or from underrepresented communities may not often feel comfortable in existing conferences. SquadCon is a space to discuss issues affecting girls, women, and LGBTQ+ encompassing mental health and all of the things which contribute to the experience of the industry's others. SquadCon is a cybersecurity conference that will include talks, labs, workshops, discussions, CTFs and panels to move towards our mission of improving diversity in ethical hacking.
SquadCon independent conference event in Las Vegas during Hacker Summer Camp tentatively scheduled for August 10-12th. It is run by the makers of Girls Hack Village and exists to help foster diversity and inclusion in cybersecurity. Tickets on sale at Eventbrite on Monday May 15th!
