WEBVTT 03:35.260 --> 03:42.140 Hey, welcome in to Rogue's Village at DEF CON 28, everyone. 03:42.740 --> 03:44.040 Hell yeah! 03:46.620 --> 03:55.740 So, I am Jax, we got AOD over here, and we are your village leads. 03:56.760 --> 03:59.940 Thanks everyone for joining us for this year. 04:00.240 --> 04:14.840 Yeah, we just wanted to kick the village off with a little welcome, first of all, and a little description of what this village is about, because it's a little different than a lot of the other spaces here at DEF CON, and to hopefully answer any basic questions that people might have. 04:14.840 --> 04:18.460 You can drop those questions into the general text channel over on Discord. 04:18.460 --> 04:20.580 We've got somebody piping those to us live. 04:21.240 --> 04:25.740 But yeah, we wanted to, first of all, like I said, welcome you, and then Jay, if you want to... 04:25.740 --> 04:26.440 Yeah. 04:27.640 --> 04:35.220 So, first of all, if you joined us from last year, thanks for joining us again in the virtual space. 04:36.520 --> 04:44.320 We like to approach security concepts through non-traditional lenses, meaning... what does that mean? 04:44.440 --> 04:44.680 Right? 04:44.680 --> 04:45.560 What does that mean? 04:46.300 --> 04:50.720 So, last year we had a few talks that kind of explored this, and I think it's probably best to reference those. 04:50.720 --> 04:55.080 We had one of our speakers from last year is actually coming back this year. 04:55.080 --> 04:57.600 They had a wildly popular pickpocketing talk. 04:58.320 --> 05:11.920 We had a dummy setup, and this is all about how to use these skills to learn it yourself, learn how it feels, and also learn, at the same time, how to protect against that threat. 05:12.260 --> 05:15.820 So, that was one of the talks that's coming back for this year. 05:15.820 --> 05:23.520 They're going to teach you how to practice at home, a little bit about how to make your own dummy, and stuff like that. 05:23.520 --> 05:24.960 One of the principles of this. 05:26.620 --> 05:28.620 So, we had pickpocketing. 05:28.620 --> 05:30.240 Do you want to talk about that? 05:30.240 --> 05:30.300 Yeah. 05:30.300 --> 05:36.080 So, the general sense is that these are all talks that approach the security space from non-traditional backgrounds. 05:36.080 --> 05:37.220 So , pickpocketing. 05:37.360 --> 05:47.540 Specifically, he's a stage magician pickpocket with kind of an understanding and the skills of how this can be applied, but taking those skills and applying them to this other field. 05:47.540 --> 05:49.060 So, that's kind of where everyone here comes from. 05:49.060 --> 05:57.240 We've had pickpockets, we've had magicians, we've had people who are professional poker players and professional advantage players who beat the casino. 05:57.360 --> 06:07.500 Jay and I have done talks on how you can use the skills of fraudulent mediums from all the way back in the 1800s to do secret communication in your field work today. 06:07.500 --> 06:12.900 However, whether you want to apply that in secret written communications or even verbal communications. 06:12.900 --> 06:21.380 It's about taking those skills from other places and applying them to this security space to find some fun and funky tools that you might not expect. 06:21.380 --> 06:32.500 And then also the reverse, taking things from the security space and applying them to those other fields to realize just kind of what you can do with those tools that you might not have expected if you come from a traditional security background. 06:32.500 --> 06:33.100 Yeah. 06:33.900 --> 06:36.980 So, that's kind of what we do as an overall village. 06:36.980 --> 06:40.880 And how are we transitioning this to the online space right now? 06:40.880 --> 06:43.420 We've got a lot of things going for you. 06:43.420 --> 06:49.880 First of all, I want to shout out all the work that AoD has done with our Rogues adventure game. 06:51.140 --> 06:56.720 And if you haven't, we were thinking about all the different ways that it would be fun to engage people online. 06:57.640 --> 06:59.540 Do you want to talk a little bit about the game actually? 06:59.540 --> 07:02.520 Because that's live to play right now if anyone wants to jump on that. 07:02.520 --> 07:03.540 Yeah, sure. 07:03.960 --> 07:12.460 We were trying to figure out what kind of content would make more sense to present in a digital space than in a physical one. 07:12.560 --> 07:16.040 And we figured the thing that makes the most sense is a fully digital experience. 07:16.040 --> 07:17.720 So this is a game that you can go play. 07:17.720 --> 07:20.980 It is a text-based puzzle adventure game. 07:21.140 --> 07:23.740 It's a puzzle game, not a hacking exercise. 07:23.740 --> 07:27.400 Yes, there are lots of ways to cheat it and to get by it without having to figure out any of the puzzles. 07:27.400 --> 07:30.160 That is not the point and you will not enjoy it if you do that. 07:30.160 --> 07:39.200 But what it does is it's a whole sequence of puzzles that asks you to think about a lot of concepts you might be very familiar with as well as a lot of concepts you might be a little bit less familiar with. 07:39.240 --> 07:45.280 And approaching them all from kind of some different perspectives, giving it some fun narrative moments. 07:45.280 --> 07:46.460 There's some pretty neat stuff in there. 07:46.460 --> 07:51.380 There's some cool art from some different artists to kind of help bring little pieces of that to life. 07:51.460 --> 07:55.320 You can find that on our website, fourseats.co slash game. 07:55.320 --> 07:57.280 It's linked in the announcements channel. 07:57.280 --> 07:58.260 Definitely check it out. 07:58.260 --> 08:03.600 I'll be doing a longer Q&A if you want to know more about that after you play some of it on the announcements channel. 08:03.780 --> 08:04.920 Definitely check. 08:05.020 --> 08:08.620 But that's kind of the big digital piece. 08:08.620 --> 08:11.960 But we also have a lot of more traditional speakers coming up. 08:12.160 --> 08:13.440 Jay, you can let people know. 08:13.440 --> 08:14.000 Yeah. 08:14.840 --> 08:15.340 My bad. 08:15.340 --> 08:20.800 You might have heard a little bit of feedback as I went live on the channel to see if anyone was throwing comments in the Twitch. 08:21.340 --> 08:24.420 The comments on Twitch, we're not looking at those right now. 08:24.580 --> 08:26.500 Chime in on the Discord channel if you have any questions. 08:27.940 --> 08:31.580 OX90 is taking comments from the Discord channel and tossing them to us. 08:31.580 --> 08:33.400 Or will be in a couple minutes. 08:33.400 --> 08:35.580 So if you have questions, toss them over there. 08:36.120 --> 08:37.660 So first up today. 08:37.660 --> 08:40.360 So we are the 11 o'clock presentation. 08:40.660 --> 08:41.780 Hello, you're welcome. 08:41.920 --> 08:48.200 We have a wonderful person I am so stoked for, honestly, today. 08:48.540 --> 08:54.580 You know what's funny is that if you look back through the Rogues Village Twitter, we retweeted the initial news of this happening. 08:54.580 --> 08:58.700 And so it's so cool to have them as a speaker here at this village. 08:58.780 --> 09:13.620 Simon Weckert made international news earlier this year for a talk about taking a bunch of basically Android phones and creating virtual traffic jams. 09:13.840 --> 09:16.260 That's our 12 o'clock talk. 09:16.260 --> 09:30.000 Simon's going to tell you what his inspiration was for the project, how he went about it, and some of the further reaching goals that he's achieving with these projects that he's doing. 09:30.000 --> 09:33.880 So that's our 12 o'clock talk, Simon Weckert, Google Maps Hacks. 09:34.160 --> 09:44.980 We have a really fun... we had a lot of people at the village last year doing, you know, magic, card tricks, gambling type stuff. 09:47.780 --> 09:49.200 In the village. 09:49.200 --> 09:52.120 So we wanted to say, alright, how can we do that this year?
