Matt is a rediculously nice guy, if it can happen to him it can happen to you! - mandatory/Matthew Bryant August 10, 2018 They will take ZERO context into account.

will ban you over anything perceived to be a threat. If you're attending Defcon be EXTREMELY careful about your Tweets. They are even threatening attendees with permanent banning from the hotel if they talk about these incidents publicly. O5Z1LNVA3j- Brent White DEF CON August 12, 2018īut ignoring the confiscations of lock picks (and for some reason soldering irons), what the hell is hotel security playing at? This is a very poorly thought out security operation whichever way you look at it and they are ignoring advice on how best to deal with hackers from some of the most prominent members of our community. And, someone took the watch key out of my watch and left it on the counter. Hey, I've had problems the last 2 days, leave for a wick breakfast and come back to my room that was "cleaned" by housekeeping.

If they cut shackld, you'll know someone was in your gear. Its not just confiscating items that they can see in rooms, there are reports of hotel security going through attendees personal belongings too, they have very clearly been searching through suitcases, an unnaceptable violation of their guests privacy.įor anyone at #Defcon concered with hotel security goons going through Pelican cases in your room, I recommend getting Abloy P元21 padlocks. Hey if you have had lockpicks confiscated at #defcon26 by hotel security please reach out to me.- Steve Ragan August 11, 2018 But still, lockpicks are part of hacker culture and organizers are trying to get them back for you. The sight of a hacker with lock picks in your five star hotel must scare the bejeesus out of any security guard. Hotel security are also confiscating attendees lock picks, although we can kind of see why they would do that. Our intrepid on-the-spot reporter the managed to get some footage of the hotel goons making their way into an innocent hackers room a cleaning lady looks on in disgust at the total invasion of privacy. #DEFCON26- Captain Wonderland DEFCON August 11, 2018 Make sure y'all are being safe and making sure it's really "hotel security". Security is entering rooms without consent at Linq. Retweeting this so everyone in Vegas for BlackHat/DefCon know that security will probably enter your hotel room - whether you're in it or not - if you declined maid service. Yes thats right, unverified members of hotel security at a number of hotels are forcing themselves into attendees rooms, it doesn't matter if you have had maid service that day or not, they are coming in any way with or without your permission. What the hell is this #DEFCON- Katie Moussouris August 11, 2018 I'm on speaker phone with hotel security, asking for a supervisor to come verify. Image courtesy of case you had not already heard, hotel security in a number of official DEFCON hotels has been rudely invading upon the privacy of the attendees.Ĭurrent status: two members of hotel security banging on my door after I asked to go into my room and verify them with hotel security. They seem to forget that they are dealing with other security professionals, ones who would understand if you explained it to them, but also ones who are deeply distrustful of unverified security personnel entering their rooms and searching their belongings without permission. Thank you for your patience while we work this out.- DEF CON preparing for DEF CON 27 August 13, 2018īut what is very clear is that Vegas hotel security has been incredibly invasive, unprofessional and heavy handed during the conference. We expect a venue where our attendees are secure in their persons and effects, and a security policy that is codified, predictable and verifiable. With so many members of our community attending DEFCON and Black Hat, we absolutely want our peers to be safe we support the work of the security services to this end. It's worth stating that nobody in the infosec space objects to enhanced security operations in the wake of the Vegas hotel shooting. Hotel security thugs at DEFCON tried to burst into your room and photograph your things? You aren't alone, its happened to lots of DEFCON attendees and it's absolutely terrifying for some of them.
