Tickets for the minicon, which runs from 12-4pm in the DNA Lounge, can be purchased separately or as a package with party tickets directly from DNA Lounge. ## Security Training EFF Activist Nadia Kayyali will be on hand to provide practical privacy and security tips from 12:30-3, based on EFF's Surveillance Self-Defense project. Attendees will have two opportunities to go through threat modeling, with time for more hands-on tools and techniques discussions with Nadia and other EFF staff. ## Capture The Flag Throughout the minicon, we will be hosting our first ever "Capture the Flag" hacking contest!
