Hey DropBears and DropBear fans, on Saturday we'll be running our LGBTQIA+ lunch time event. Our LGBTQIA+ event provides an opportunity for the community to meet. If this event and its focus resonates with you, meet at the registration desk at 12:30.

Call for Locks! Our lock-picking crew are having some shipping dramas and may not have the usual gear in Brisbane in time for the workshops on Saturday! If anyone is a member of a lock-sport club that may be able to come along with some gear and help out the crew please reach out to us!

Conference this weekend! Another shout out to Sekuro.io for supporting our con, and lookout for their lab in the CTF room. Looking forward to seeing you this weekend!

DropBears cause fear and chaos. But who forms strong, lifelong pairs within flocks and are active and intelligent? Galahs. We'd like to thank again our sponsor www.galahcyber.com.au for helping us deliver our con! Come make like a Galah and form strong bonds on Saturday with them and more.

Thanks Crikey crew! It’s a great bunch of speaker you’ve got lined up this year. Can’t wait to see the! 😍

You know how when you move house, and things just end up everywhere. I hope that's the case.. And not someone is trying to kill me when I make my morning toast.

Aww yeah! @crikeycon.bsky.social schedule is up!! crikeycon.com/schedule/

Next up we have Zane on stage to dive into the anatomy of credential attacks, exploring how attackers exploit stolen credentials, bypass defences, and leverage automation to maximize their success. Does MFA work, how well, and what else can you do in 'Credential Stuffing Unmasked'?

This year NTT is supporting our Women of CrikeyCon event on 20th March. Women of CrikeyCon provide a chance for attendees identifying as women, friends, and the wider community to meet before CrikeyCon to promote diversity and inclusion. Register here: events.humanitix.com/crikeycon-x-...

We cracked over 700 tickets, thank you so much for all your support! Many hugs from us, we'll see you next Saturday 🥰🐨

Come learn with Kelsy how to develop your cyber team as trustworthy within an org, rather than a compliance function, and how increasing levels of perceived legitimacy may allow security teams to further leverage employees as practical and informed resources!
