It was great to help organize R00tz (Def Con Kids Village) again this year, and to have a chance to give ITSP Magazine an inside look at our program and kid hackers!
The US Army put on a bug bounty program, highlighting pen testing techniques at Black Hat and R00tz Asylum in Las Vegas this past week at the Defcon hacking conference. They will bring this same program for both kids and adults to CornCon in Davenport, Iowa on September 8, 2018. Join us there!
