DEF CON 33 Villages
- Date:
- August 7-10th
- Location:
- Las Vegas Convention Center West Hall

Join Bishop Fox at DEF CON 33, where we’re proud to support the community through hands-on contributions, demos, and talks across three standout villages:
Physical Security Village: Speaking Session
Hector Cruz, Managing Security Consultant at Bishop Fox, takes the stage at the Physical Security Village with his session: "Airport Security! Breaking into Your Baggage."
Abstract: When we travel with valuable baggage, we rely on the security of locks, especially those that are TSA-approved. But how secure are they really? In this talk, I’ll present a research on the vulnerabilities and bypasses of these locks and their embedding into the baggage, covering the most common models as well as the newer TSA008. We’ll discuss how lock picking techniques, master keys, and bypass methods can compromise the security of all TSA-approved models, potentially putting our belongings at risk.
AI Village: Deepfake Demos
Catch Brandon Kovacs, Senior Security Consultant - Red Team, at the AI Village for live deepfake demo sessions. Brandon will showcase real-world use cases of deepfake technology, offering a peek into how hackers are using artificial intelligence to create deepfakes.
Red Team Village: Bronze Sponsor
Bishop Fox is honored to be a Bronze Sponsor of the Red Team Village. Our consultants are not just attending, they’re rolling up their sleeves as volunteers, helping to run the village and ensure attendees have a memorable, hands-on experience. Swing by to say hello, learn about offensive security techniques, and meet some of the folks behind our cutting-edge engagements.
