# EFF Anniversary Minicon
### July 16, 2015 - 12:00pm to 4:00pm
### DNA Lounge | San Francisco

As part of our 25th anniversary celebration, EFF is hosting a minicon that will include a security training, a capture-the-flag event, and a series of panels discussing the future of EFF issues in security, copyright and user control and online activism and speech. 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! Anyone present at the minicon will be eligible to participate in our 4 hour contest. The challenges will include web hacking, binary analysis, cryptography challenges, and more. Top competitors will receive special prizes! Participants should bring a laptop with linux or a virtual machine installed.

Space in the CTF is limited so please pre-register by sending an email with your team name and number of participants to ctf@eff.org. There is no official limit on team sizes but you will probably be asked to split up if your team is bigger than 3 people.
