💥 KEYNOTE SPOTLIGHT 💥
Tarah Wheeler is bringing the heat to BSidesChicago 2025 with a talk that’s as bold as it is timely:

🛡️ “Me and What Army: Civilian Defenders vs Foreign Military Cyberattacks” 🛡️

Because let’s be honest—when the digital artillery starts flying, it’s not always government agencies on the frontlines. It’s us.
The sysadmins. The threat hunters. The DFIR nerds.
The hackers who patch before coffee. The defenders who never sleep.

Tarah’s going to take us inside the world of cyber conflict, national policy, and the very real role that civilian infosec plays in a landscape increasingly shaped by global power struggles.

You will leave this keynote inspired, alarmed, and ready to fight smarter.

#Hackers —hope to defect to #Russia ? Don’t #Google#defecting to Russia.”

To the casual observer, #cybercriminals can look like swashbuckling geniuses.

They possess technical skills formidable enough to penetrate the networks of the biggest companies on the planet.

They cover their tracks using technology that is arcane to most people—VPNs, #encrypted #chat apps, onion routing, aliases in dark web forums.
