This means more content for attendees (both in-person and virtual) interested in buidling bridges between the worlds of hackers and policymakers. The Evening Lounge format is back, too! We’ll be posting all the Policy updates at The DEF CON 29 Policy Page , so if this is your thing, make sure to bookmark it and check back often.
Workshops are back for DEF CON 29! We’ve got a wide variety of topics from a great roster of presenters, all of which you can peruse at your leisure on the Workshops page . If you find a workshop that you want in on, you can sign up starting at 0900 PDT on Tuesday July 6.
