Mission
Our mission is to serve the information security community in and around Charlotte, NC by primarily holding an annual BSides Charlotte Security Conference which offers learning opportunities through talks, activity villages, and capture-the-flag competitions. From time-to-time BSides Charlotte may put on training opportunities and partner with other organizations to bring value added content to the community.
BSides Charlotte is moving dates... to be announced soon.
BSides conferences are always a journey, while each conference focuses on the current year, planning for the conference takes a long time and has many different angles to consider. When we restarted BSides Charlotte a handful of years back, we made the decision to hold the conference in the fall for a variety of reasons that made a lot of sense at the time. Those same reasons no longer hold true.
As such, we are making a very difficult decision to move the conference to the spring. We considered a great number of different things when coming to this decision (detailed in below link) but want to assure everyone this is NOT something we wanted to do, and we would like to apologize to the entire community for this, but, we do believe it is absolutely the best path forward.
Additionally, we are still working on an event for 2024. More details will be shared on this as soon as we have a few more key conversations over the next few weeks to work out some important details.
This of course means, for now, all "Call For" and Sponsorship activities will pause while we update everything. Volunteer activities will continue as we still have a lot to do, more will be coming out on that in the next few days and weeks.
