BSidesAugusta

<DIV CLASS="panel_section">
We welcome all information security professionals, students, and enthusiasts to the fifth BSidesAugusta! This year has brought many new developments to Augusta and we're excited to be a part of it! A giant thank you to Augusta University, especially the Cyber Institute and Hull College of Business, for making the Harrison Educations Commons Building on R.A. Dent Blvd available to us for the third straight year. 
Find the Harrison Education Commons on this map: <A HREF="http://www.augusta.edu/maps/images/healthsciencescampus.pdf" TARGET="_blank" TITLE="http://www.augusta.edu/maps/images/healthsciencescampus.pdf" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.augusta.edu/maps/images/healthsciencescampus.pdf</A> 
New this year - SANS is bringing CyberCity, which engages participants to defend a minuature city's infrastructure from terrorist cyber attacks, as well as to utilize offensive tactics to retake or maintain control of critical assets. Stop by (with your laptop) and test your skills. 
Something else new this year - an after party! It's a completely separate event AND sold out. Sorry!
We had so many good submissions, we decided to bring four tracks of good talks again! We are continuing to host the very popular FALE lock pick village, where you can practice your physical penetration skills.

FAQs
What's the deal with the after party?
Stay tuned. Details will be posted. 
There's a really great arts event in Downtown Augusta the same weekend as BSidesAugusta. Will that affect the conference?
The other event takes place in another area of Downtown Augusta. We don't expect it will affect traffic in the area of the conference or the preferred hotel.
Will it cost me to bring my child or a guest? 
Yes. As great as our venue is, it has a finite amount of space for attendees.  
Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event?
Yes, please bring your ticket as it's your admission to the event and you will need it at check-in. You also can use the Eventbrite app. 
The name on the registration/ticket doesn't match the attendee. Is that okay?
Each attendee needs to have their own ticket in their own name. 
What are my transport/parking options getting to the event?
The most convenient way to get to the venue is by car. Parking is available in the gravel lot adjacent to the building and in the Goss Lane Parking Deck, which can be found on the map: <A HREF="http://www.augusta.edu/maps/images/healthsciencescampus.pdf" TARGET="_blank" TITLE="http://www.augusta.edu/maps/images/healthsciencescampus.pdf" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.augusta.edu/maps/images/healthsciencescampus.pdf</A>  
What can I bring to the event?
Bring a laptop if you plan to participate in CyberCity. 
What is the refund policy?
Sorry, there are no refunds.
