Security BSides São Paulo (BSidesSP)
termsecurityevents
The Sao Paulo edition of the global Security BSides circuit - a free, community-organised conference on information security and hacker culture, run by working professionals, with talk tracks, villages, a capture-the-flag contest and a pre-event day of mini-trainings.
It began as Conferencia O Outro Lado, hosted at Garoa Hacker Clube for the community around the invite-only YSTS, and grew into the largest free security event in the country. The pairing is the point: BSidesSP happens on the weekend before YSTS, so the people excluded from the closed room have a bigger open one - a deliberate answer to the access problem that invite-only events create, and the reason Brazil's scene has stayed open despite having an exclusive event at its centre.
