Had a great time at yesterday’s Careers Symposium, meeting so many people interested in cyber security and BSides Canberra! BSidesCbr 2024 had 3,200 attendees, but only 10% were students. Students & newcomers—BSides Canberra is for you too! You’re 100% welcome.

A group of four people are standing behind a BSides Canberra promotional table at an event. They are smiling, gesturing enthusiastically, and wearing BSides Canberra t-shirts and hoodies. The table is covered with a custom BSides Canberra tablecloth and displays various promotional materials, including stickers, brochures, electronic badges, and a selection of locks. Behind them, a large banner highlights BSides Canberra as "Australia’s Largest Hacker Conference," mentioning technical talks, hands-on hacking villages, CTF challenges, networking opportunities, and workshops. The setting is an indoor careers fair.
