Join us for a spooky good time at the SecDSM October meetup on Wednesday, October 2nd, at Foundry Distillery in West Des Moines! This isn't your typical security meetup—we're cranking up the party vibes with Halloween-themed activities that blend cybersecurity with seasonal fun.
Come ready to compete in a Hacker Costume Contest, tackle an electrifying Scavenger Hunt, test your skills in a spooky Capture The Flag (CTF) challenge, and show off your knowledge at a brain-teasing Trivia Night. Prizes await the winning teams, and everyone has a chance to win a bottle of whiskey in a raffle drawing!
Whether you're a seasoned security professional or just getting started in the field, this is the perfect opportunity to connect with the local cybersecurity community, learn about offensive security, and have some Halloween fun. Our team will be on-site to answer questions about offensive security and share insights from the field.
