DC615 Nashville joins a new educational initiative with TN Homeland Security!
Posted 3.26.18
DC615, the DEF CON group based out of Nashville, TN is excited to be a part of a new initiative between the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security, and local law enforcement! The new initiative builds a stronger connection between members of the Information Security community and federal and local law enforcement, with emphasis on educating on the risks of cyber security, as well as details for remediation efforts.
DC615 has been chosen as the group to help build this initiative. We are building a framework with the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security that can be shared and used by any DC group, and look forward to being able to share our knowledge through training events, speaking engagements, and whatever other capacity that we can be utilized to help educate and strengthen the security posture of schools, federal and local law enforcement. This is a great way for us to not only help give to our community, but to help educate others as well.
The project was announced at DEF CON 25, and has been in planning with Jayson Street, Brent White, and the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security since the projects inception around April, 2017. Events will be announced soon, and we will keep you updated on this project.

How to Start a DEF CON Group
Posted 1.13.18
A local DEF CON group (DCG) is part of “a global community of hackers, thinkers, makers and others bent on being part of the elegant chaos they want to see in the world” (--The Dark Tangent)
DCG is a great way to meet, learn, and share with local hackers.
If there is not a local DCG within a reasonable commute from your area, you may want to start your own group.
