About Us

SquadCon is a two-day conference powered by BlackGirlsHack. This conference is in Las Vegas during Hacker Summer Camp. SquadCon 2024 will be held August 7-8th at the Industrial Event Space, with a kickoff event on August 6th. We will have amazing keynotes, discussion panels, beginner-friendly hands-on workshops, and a fantastic lineup of research and fireside chats on some of the latest edge trends in cybersecurity.

SquadCon is more than just a conference. It’s a mission to address underrepresentation in the field of cybersecurity. By highlighting diverse contributions and experiences, SquadCon 2024 provides an inspiring opportunity for attendees to learn about cybersecurity and hacking in a supportive and inclusive environment. We invite you to be part of this important mission.

Our goal is to “Con Differently.” Focusing on inclusivity, we promote diversity and inclusion within the cybersecurity community. We encourage speakers and panelists from diverse backgrounds and underrepresented groups to share their perspectives and experiences. Lastly, we will equally value and welcome the input of those entering the field as those who’ve been there for years.

SquadCon provides a gender-diverse platform for women and girls in cybersecurity, fostering discussions on their contributions, perspectives, and challenges. It offers Talks, Workshops, Discussions, and Panels to address issues affecting females in the field.
