Security B-Sides Dallas/Fort Worth (BSidesDFW)
fostering pragmatic creativity for 15 years.
Security BSides Dallas/Fort Worth (BSidesDFW) is one of many "chapters" of the decentralized Security BSides movement.
From humble beginnings in 2009 to now in 2024 with over 1002 BSides events around the world, hosted in 220+ cities spanning 62+ countries, BSides events are the preeminent no-to-low cost gatherings of information security professionals and enthusiasts.
Each BSides event is community-driven and thereby imparts its own flavor, making every event a unique experience. Whether it is 30 participants, 300 participants or 3000 participants the next-big-thing is there, ready to be discovered.

Behave yourselves!
Security BSides Dallas - Fort Worth was founded to facilitate the exchange of information and the development of relationships.
We welcome and encourage the expression and debate of ideas. We also recognize that we do not have to agree in order to listen to, and/or understand, a given point of view. However, there is a language and a behaviour that is appropriate and expected in achieving that discourse.
Harassment and/or abusive behaviour will not be tolerated.
Any participant that experiences and/or witnesses inappropriate behaviour is expected to report said behaviour to event staff.
Any participant that experiences and/or witnesses inappropriate behaviour is encouraged to ask the offending individual to stop.
Any participant asked to stop a behaviour is expected to comply immediately.
Event organizers reserve the right to respond to observed and/or reported behaviour in a manner deemed appropriate, including but not limited to expulsion without refund and referral to the relevant authorities.
It is our goal to ensure that the event is welcoming, enjoyable, and safe for all participants.
Be exemplary for each other. See something, say something.
