Many thanks to everyone who filled out the halfnarp. Thanks to you and the many helping hands of the speaker desk and content teams, we can present the first version of the 38C3 schedule today!

The official program of the 38th Chaos Communication Congress comes up with 7 tracks containing 140 talks with 6625 minutes of program. There is definitely something for everyone! The 38C3 starts on December 27 at 10:30 with the Opening Ceremony and ends on December 30 at 18:00 with “Return to legal constructions”.

For those of you who have been counting by hand or even found the gaps in the program: …

We’re 36C3’s Resilience and Sustainability content team and want to show you just our bit of work that helped making this year’s Fahrplan as amazing as it has turned out.

Our team consists of hackers and scientists, tinkerers and PhDs and was formed for 34C3 when we felt that the conference was developing a blind spot between complete destruction of all the IT things and the fascinations for the resulting apocalypse. We wanted to give a stage to new and shiny useful technology for a better and more resilient world – with actual prototypes!

This year’s motto “resource exhaustion” added a …

Last Sunday at midnight the submission period for our Call for Participation ended. The last submission, by a Swiss, landed just in time at 23:59:20 UTC. Our content curation teams will now use the next two weeks to review, rate, sort, and ultimately decide on a large number of submissions. We intend to inform all submitters on November 11th on whether we found a place for them in our Fahrplan.

At the time of our coordination meeting on Sunday there were 690 pending submissions in our system. To put this into perspective: If you would want to just spend a minute to review them all, you would …

Das habt Ihr mal echt gut hinbekommen! Wir haben es ja für den 34C3 dieses Jahr wieder mit unserem halfnarp-Spezialwerkzeug versucht. halfnarp bot Euch einen Schnupperblick in den Fahrplan und unserem Fahrplan-Team die Möglichkeit, aus Eurem liebevoll aus vielen Vortragsangeboten zusammengestellten Programm Eure Auswahl einzuarbeiten. Das vermeidet einen Fahrplan, bei dem zu viele Vorträge nebeneinanderliegen, …

Liebe Datenfreunde,

endlich können wir Euch einen vorläufigen Fahrplan für die diesjährigen MRMCD präsentieren! Wir freuen uns, dass sich ein vielfältiges und fein verästeltes Programm an Vorträgen und Workshops aus ganz bunten Gebieten gefunden hat. Den Fahrplan findet ihr hier: https://cfp.mrmcd.net/2017/schedule/.

Bitte seid ein bisschen geduldig mit uns: Der Fahrplan muss noch ein wenig gegossen werden und wachsen. Noch haben nicht alle Vortragenden ihre Vorträge final bestätigt und der eine oder andere Platz auf dem Zeitplan wird noch tauschen.

Falls Ihr es noch nicht getan habt, könnt …

Voller Stolz präsentiert das 33C3-Content-Team die Auswahl der Vorträge für den 33. Chaos Communication Congress. In harter Arbeit haben unsere fünf Track-Teams die besten 150 aus rund 500 Vortrags-Einreichungen für das beste Vortragsprogramm ausgewählt, das wir Euch an den vier Tagen des 33C3 in sechs Tracks anbieten wollen.

Almost a week ago we published the Camp Fahrplan (schedule). Follow this link for more information.

Many applications, including closed source applications like malware or DRM-enabled multimedia players (you might consider them as malware too) use cryptography. When analyzing these applications, a first step is the identification and localization of the cryptographic building blocks (cryptographic primitives, for example AES, DES, RSA…) in the applications. When these blocks have been localized, the input and output of the cryptographic primitives and the key management can be observed and the application can be analyzed further. Fortunately, many cryptographic algorithms use special …

Hackers of all ages can (learn how to) make things at the Hardware Hacking Area of the 27c3!

The HHA is open to everyone and open the entire congress! Hackers of all ages and skill levels are welcome! Round-the-clock hands on workshops will be led by lots of experienced teachers like Mitch Altman, Jimmie P. Rodgers, fbz, Wim Vandeputte and…you!

Learn to solder, then help teach others! Make cool things with electronics, design and print 3D models on the Makerbot, break RFID, or give your own workshop on the projects you’ve been hacking on this year. Last year there was a Cantenna workshop, a …

Want four minutes on stage at the 27c3? You can have it! Registration is now open for the Lightning Talk sessions at the 27c3.

Taking place at 12:45 in Saal 3 on Days 2, 3 and 4, these fast paced sessions are perfect for pitching new software or hardware projects, exploits, creative pranks or strange ideas you need to share with the world.

Lightning talks are also good for getting publicity for your workshop at the 27c3, or for recruiting people to join in on things like a high calorie flash mob.

In order to maximize the available time, registrations will be granted to presenters who submit …

During all the years there were really great workshops at the Chaos Communication Congress. Unfortunately they were a bit hard to find, because we only announced them in the wiki and some workshops weren’t in there either. So it is clear, that the lack of attendees in some workshops was surely not because of uninteresting topics but merely because of our laziness to make them easier to find.

Our approach to that problem is to ask all visitors who want to give a workshop at 27C3 to hand it in before the conference so we can release an official schedule for workshops before day 1 of the …
