I was at Positive Hack Days Fest 2 +This fesivalt is about cybersecurity (in wide perspective). +What I liked: + - __SE Quest__ - in this event anyone can be a social enginer and try hack employees at event. That's really unique, I would really love to see this more often + - __Organization__ - PositiveTechnology did really good job at arranging everything that you would need + - __Affordable__ - this times tickets to event costs for 11$, what is really affordable compared to previous years and OFFZONE + - __Hidden benefits__ - at Fest I've heard interesting idea about this kind of events - it's easier to watch reports at home in YouTube (in x2 speed, silence skip, etc.), so is there a reason to attend to this kind of events? Yes, because you get a lot of merch in various quests, you can network with people better, you get motivated to be better at cyberSec and you give to event more your energy due to spending your time and money to attend this event. + +What I didn't like: + - __Too Big__ - some events and facilities are so far away from each other so your legs will hurt. Too many parallel presentations, you just don't have time to attend to all of the interesting to you + - __Networking__ - apart from speakers, it was hard to get know other people, because there are SO MANY OF THEM (~40k). Your best bet - stay to speak with speaker after their speach. + - __Quests__ - at PHD11 there was real BugBounty program with __real hardware__ which you can hack with your hands + you could earn real money. In this event there wasn't any of this kind + - __Quests's merch__ - merchendise from SE Quest/WAF bypass... are worse in terms of design in comparison to paid merch + - __Quests's blockchain__ - I didn't found a reason why would POSI tokens essentially needed -{{< spoiler Spoiler >}} -I forgot to remove it from template -{{< /spoiler >}} +## About participating as speaker +I was a speaker there! It was really exciting and I did pretty good. -{{< source >}} -Random YouTube videos -My Experience -{{< /source >}} +As a speaker for 1h report - you get free airlines tickets + living in Moscow and it's really awesome. +As I said, organization was awesome, but I still can complain about few minor details: + - __Notification__ - organizators were late at notifying of speaker party so after arraving in Moscow I had to go directly from airport to party without stopping at hotel + - __Airline__ - I've choose airline ticket that was a day later than maximum day of staying (about which you will know if you do like me). It was a bit inconvinient that I couldn't ask for ticket a day later (even if I would pay for living this day) + - __Living__ - living in hotel is limited to 2 nights. Hotel is awesome, no complains to it. But there is a complain to this 3 day limit. I would prefere to stay in a cheaper hotel for all perioud being in event (+ inconvinient place of hotel, a bit far from Fest) + - __Eat__ - nobody told that there were speakers's rooms that have lockers and free food/drinks + - __Stage__ - lights on stage were too bright and shined into my eyes + +--- + +There are a lot of complains but they all minor and I'm glad that I was there. + + diff --git a/content/personal/Update_NOW.md b/content/personal/Update_NOW.md index badfdfb..385053a 100644 --- a/content/personal/Update_NOW.md +++ b/content/personal/Update_NOW.md @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ +++ title = 'Update NOW' -date = 2024-06-22 +date = 2024-06-30 +++ Friendly reminder - backup your systems and update them (both OS and BIOS) right now!
