The Def Con conference is one of the world’s biggest hacker conventions held in Nevada every year since 1993. The event hosts a multitude of tracks, demonstrations, and speakers from computer security experts, tech journalists, hackers, and government cyber specialists. This year’s Def Con 25 will have a lot going on as the audience will hear about jailbreaking Android and Apple gear, Opsec techniques, the evolution of DDoS attacks, abusing certificates, drone defense markets, and more.
