🚀 New Venue/Collaboration Alert!
This meetup marks our first collaboration with Red Mountain Makers. As a hub of innovation and creativity, this maker space is the perfect backdrop for our exploration into the technical depths of security. We’re thrilled to bring our community together in this new, dynamic space, fostering connections and inspiring creations.

🎤 Special Guest Speaker: Christopher Browning
Background: Veteran Law Enforcement executive turned TSCM guru. Chris has delved into the darkest corners of modern policing and now brings his formidable expertise to the realm of technical security. From battling corruption to pioneering private investigative and TSCM services, he’s seen it all.

Session Focus: Technical Threats Workshop
Decode and Defend: Step into the shadowy world of surveillance with our interactive workshop. We’ll peel back the layers of security and expose:
• The ABCs of TSCM and why it’s your digital armor
• An arsenal of threats from mundane “spy shop” gadgets to high-tech espionage tools
• The spectrum of devices: DIY hacks, RF, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GSM, and beyond
• A closer look at invisible dangers like infrared and visible light threats, hardwired mics, stealth recorders, and carrier current devices.

This session is your battlefield guide to navigating and neutralizing modern surveillance threats. Expect a charged atmosphere, live demos, and intense discussions.

👥 Initiate Protocol Handshake: Establishing Peer Connections, begin the protocol handshake and establish peer connections with fellow cybersecurity enthusiasts. This is more than a meetup; it’s where theory meets practice and curiosity meets expert knowledge. Whether you’re a seasoned hacker or just starting, there’s something here for everyone.
