About DefCamp

DefCamp started back in 2011 as a small infosec gathering among friends. Soon, the meetup became an event and, later on, the largest and most important cybersecurity and hacking conference from Central and Eastern Europe. 

We are here so let’s Learn. Practice. Grow. Connect with the infosec community. 

On May 16th-17th 2024, DefCamp organized a first spin-off edition in Cluj-Napoca. Almost 400 infosec enthusiasts got together in one of the most important tech hubs in Romania to discuss cybersecurity.

Now, we are preparing for the 2024 edition with lots of enthusiasm and energy while we set up the logistics to meet once again with the community under the same roof, in Bucharest. 

There will be groundbreaking keynotes, insightful workshops, cutting-edge demos, and the latest trends in cyber defense.

Whether you’re looking to enhance your knowledge, connect with industry leaders, or be part of live hacking challenges, DefCamp 2024 will be the place to be for anyone passionate about cybersecurity. 

Get ready to experience the next level of infosec excitement!

Why ATTEND the DefCamp conference and be part of the community?

01

Stay up to date with the cybernews

The digital landscape needs a strong and united cybersecurity community. We invite you to get involved in exchanging knowledge and developing connections.

How? Share your experience and knowledge in articles, white papers or other types of research and actively contribute valuable information while encouraging others to do the same. 

Time has come to give back and be stronger together, as a team.

02

Learn from infosec rockstars

Over the years, some of the most experienced and generous people in infosec took the stage at DefCamp conference.

You probably saw them too if you attended any (or all!) of the 12 editions of the conference. From basics to advanced tactics and knowledge, you get free access to a rich repository of presentations and videos to learn from. Be a doer and apply at Call for Papers with your research to add your name on the DefCamp rockstars. 

03

Keep your skills sharp

The road to becoming an infosec expert is paved with two things: constant learning and practice.

Why? Well, technology evolves and so do attack techniques, which means that all defenders must practice – a lot. We host regular CTFs and tournaments for different experience levels on CyberEDU to keep the community motivated and sharp. So, plan your infosec training and practice effectively. 

04

Keep on hacking for good

We now have our own playground for all the hacking activities happening in the DefCamp Hacking Village, online on CyberEDU.

Set up your free account to participate in exciting competitions that test your skills while engaging your competitive spirit. And yes, the best hackers get prizes and their special place in the competition’s Hall of Fame.

CyberEDU will host all future DefCamp competitions ensuring us all the means to  bring together all of you for some hacking for good.
