What's the story of BSides?

BSides is a worldwide infosec event format, organized by the local infosec community in every city it is held. BSides Tallinn is organized by a non-profit core-team, volunteers and sponsors since 2021.

One core difference of all BSides events is that the talks on the stage are proposed by anyone and selected by a program committee - professionals representing the organizers, private companies, academia, the state, freelancers.

What can I expect from BSides Tallinn?

Talks, presentations, demos, proof-of-concepts across a very broad spectrum of infosec topics. All of the content is proposed by community members.

But it is not just the smart stuff on stage. Almost as important (or maybe even more) is the informal part where you get to know other people. Networking, chat and chill, village with some cool DIY stuff, perhaps even a local brew.

Our mission is to make infosec accessiible to everyone, even if you are not (yet) a seasoned veteran or have a strong network. Come, meet and learn.

Who's behind BSides Tallinn?

Core group of volunteer organizers make the dream come true.

Sponsors are also integral part of the community. With their support the event takes place in its proper form.

Volunteering is an unique opportunity to gain experience in organizing high-interest community event, meet exciting people, peek behind the scenes and just have fun.
