Presentation

The Toulouse Hacking Convention (or THCon) is a cybersecurity conference that brings together hobbyists, professionals and researchers!

Since its inception in 2017, the THCon was held every year in Toulouse, France. Today, it is an unmissable cybersecurity event in Occitania, and beyond.

Who are we?

Behind the THCon stands a team of security enthusiasts, investing their energy together to create a major cybersecurity event, open to everyone.

Our team is made of professionals, students and researchers from all over France, willing to share their knowledge with others.

RUMPS

We will organize a rump session on Thursday! More information to come, stay tuned!

The CTF

Like the four previous editions, we will again organize a "Capture The Flag".

In that competition, players have to put their hacking skills into practice to solve cybersecurity challenges, like exploiting a flaw in a website, extracting data embedded in a memory image, finding vulnerabilities in an encryption protocol and much more… The resolution of each challenge gives you a "flag", a password needed to win points. The goal, as you might have guessed, is simply to score as many points as possible.

This CTF will take place during the Saturday that follows the talks, and the organization is yet to be seen. More information will come on our social networks.

INTERNATIONAL INFLUENCE
