Defcon 28 Safe Mode Guide



By   WirelessPhreak      Monday, July 27, 2020      Labels: , ,  



**Update 8/8/2020**
I have been spending some time in the #lobby-bar channel on the Defcon Discord. We have been reminiscing of Defcons' past and one of the attendees posted up a couple Docs from the AP they had worked on. I wanted to post them because they pretty much sum up a lot of peoples Defcon experience at the AP.
**Update 8/8/2020**
Dark Tangent just posted in the info-booth Discord channel a link to the Defcon info page.  Really nice easy to use interface and search functionality:
 
**Update 8/7/2020**
Wall of Sheep aka Packet Hacking Village talk schedule is online.

Where to watch:

 
**Update 8/6/2020** 
DCTV just posted their twitch channel.  
 
 
**Update 8/6/2020 13:21**
 "The following Twitch Streams are available depending on the schedule for each specific track or village. The schedule can be found at https://info.defcon.org/.

I have found if you follow the channels within twitch you can see what channels are live or not.

**Update 8/6/2020 10:00**
I have found a method to engage in Defcon that works well with me. 
  1. Identify the talks I want to watch
  2. Create a youtube playlist listing the talks in order of the live Q&A's (then watch them)
  3. Created calendar events of the live Q&A with the speaker on the Defcon Twitch channel (https://www.twitch.tv/defconorg)
  4. between live Q&A I want to watch I stream the Defcon Entertainment channel on twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/defcon_music)
  5. Hang out on the Defcon Discord server in #linecon, #dcg, #pool-1, and the #pool-3 channels we will see which ones i spend the most time in. Currently linecon is holding most of my attention.
We will see when the Villages open up tomorrow how much time I will hang in there.

Defcon 28 Safe Mode is a culture shock, and for me the move to online does not feel as natural as I though it would. I am fighting 18 years of routine and habit that I need to kick. That being said I wanted to create a page where I could keep track of whats going on and where it happening,  I imagine there will be a lot of spin off twitch channels and discord channels I will try to keep it up.

Defcon Talks:
The schedule was released https://defcon.org/html/defcon-safemode/dc-safemode-schedule.html One interesting point about the lineup it looks like all the talks will be sequential so you can see every talk if you want.

Defcon Forums:
This is the major jumping off point for everything going down at Defcon 28. Explore the forums that interest you and get involved. Some of the villages have already set up active discord channels and the will list them in their forum channel.

Defcon Entertainment:
Here is a link to some of the live entertainment that will be going down. Defcon has posted the schedule of the live sets and published the twitch channel that will be streaming the performances.
