Hey there! Are you passionate in talking to a group of people? How about a bunch of n00bs? Do you have an idea, a talk, or some lessons learned you wished you could pass on to the newbies coming into the cyber world? You are in luck! N00b Village this year during DefCon 34 is hosting a Call for Papers!

This is a great opportunity to present to an audience thirsty for new content, as well as to reinforce skills already acquired and may not know all the key members of the community. We are here to bridge the gap and offer the opportunity to meet future fans and support the CyberSecurity Profession as a whole. We had an all-star lineup last year and would like to add your name to the Speakers Alumni List. We will assume the technology responsibilities; audio, visual, and scheduling efforts will be taken care of, to allow you to concentrate on the presentation.

I was fortunate enough to venture into the CyberSecurity world almost two years ago and it has been informative. I had no idea what I was getting into or how little I knew, not sure the majority of any of that has changed much, but I’m learning. To do that, I needed and still need people, actual people, to help guide and direct, to illuminate the path as it were. This has been a fantastic group to associate with because of the diversities. Walks of life, stages of life, experiences, associations, abilities, and every imaginable mental strength, in all its forms, are free to learn from, and it’s wonderful. Thank you for supporting a Noob and everything that entails, I appreciate it so much, I volunteer year-round to help where I can. It is important for continuity to teach the future practitioners of the World to learn everyday and work hard because the threat isn’t going away.
