>> Hello, DEF CON. >> [Applause]. >> So I've got to tell you, this was an amazingly
fast year for me. It feels like we just opened this in Penn and Teller and now we're sitting in
a room across the hotel and I'm telling you goodbye. I'm going to cry. >> Don't cry. >>
Since we have so many more people in the room and I can actually sort of see everybody,
can you raise your hand if this is your first year please? >> [Applause]. >> All right, big
hand for yourself. >> [Applause]. >> All right, for everyone else, I promise you we
will try to make this as short and painless as possible. >> [Laughter]. >> [Applause].
>> So in the interest of time savings, I am going to move on to my thank yous. My name is
Russ and I am the Acting Chief of Operations for the conference this year. >> [Cheering]. >>
Thank you, Banchi. There was an absence, I want to make a shout out Locki, so if I could get a
shout out to Lock. >> [Applause]. >> This is his first DEF CON to miss in 20
years. So, yeah, this is a pretty big deal >> [Off mic]. >> Oh, sure, now you won't say
anything. Chicken! First I want to say, my voice is my passport. >> Yeah! >> Thank you.
[Laughter]. Some people got it. >> [Laughter]. >> So we have a lot of people that make this
conference happen. You know, if you've been here for any amount of time, you can remember back
when we counted ourselves in hundreds or less and not in tens of thousands. So it takes a
strong intelligent and proactive team to make this happen. So I can't mention all of the names,
so I will apologize now, but I do want to mention the people and the groups that make this
happen. So from Administration, we've got Nikita, Neal, Romer and Will and Lost Boy. So I
would like to get a round of applause for them. >> [Applause]. >> On the
production team, we have Cheryl, Tom and a whole slew of people running around making sure the
trash is emptied of the trash thrown away. You guys throw some crazy stuff away, I don't know
where you get some of this stuff. Round of applause for production team, please. >>
[Applause]. >> So for the rest of this, I'm just going to kind of read everything off and we
can applaud everyone at the end because I've got about 15 groups and I just realized it's going
to take me about a half hour if we do in this way. Thank you. >> [Laughter]. >> So for
registration, we've got C Stone and his team, for speakers, we have Agent X and his team. >>
Whoa! >> For Swag, we have Secret and his team. For the Red Shirts, we have CJ, Flea and
their team and I would also like to shout out to Priest who has helped me on more than one
occasion this weekend put out some fires. Contests, we have Hack a Jar and Coleslaw is. For
villages and parties we have Drifter. >> Whoa! >> For QM we have Major and we have Tom
and I think there's a song about that. For radios we have [indiscernible]. For dispatch,
we have Heather and her team. For the Knock, we have Effen and his team. For the press we have
Nicole and team. For vendors, we have Wisacker and all the people who helped him out. I also want
to thank [indiscernible] and the rest of his team for putting on a great DC 101 this year. And
for everybody else that I did not mention that is on staff, I'd like to say thank you. For
my first why year to every actually step up and be the man in the hot seat, you made it
easy. And mostly I want to thank every single one of you, we do this because we were in your
seat once and we freakin' love DEF CON. So thank you all for being here. >> [Applause].
>> All right, I have one more item of business and then I'll hand it off to DT. Where is Eddy
Mise? So Eddy Mise did all of the faces of death? How many of you saw faces of death? Faces of
DEF CON. >> Drink! >> All I have a water sorry. Hey, I've been sober no the weekend
mostly. So he did a whole bunch of artwork and they have gone through the trouble of having a
whole ton of us sign this and this was under the guise of donating this for Hackers For
Fundraising, but we have all signed this for Eddy as a thank you, so if we could get a round
of applause. >> [Applause] >> I don't know what to say about that, you guys are all
incredible, Russ, all of you, thank you so much >> [Applause]. >> And so with
that, I'm going to hand it to the Dark Tangent. Yeah! >> [Applause] whoa! >> Now I want
to just echo what Russ has said, this is a team sport right up here and these are some of the
team players, but we have about 300 volunteers, not counting just attendees that do it
themselves and make stuff happen. And somebody came up to me just before the start and he
said, you know what, this is my third DEF CON and the first one I went to, I don't know what to
do and I was really kind of anti‑ social. And the second one I started to get the vibe, but
yesterday I was dancing and partying and my wallet fell out and I lost it. An hour later a
dude called me and he had it. He said this is the best community, this is super cool. >>
[Applause]. >> So that's the spirit we're really trying to build here. A couple of things I
want to mention for next year. Hey, that was me, I was supposed to shoot those at you! So some
statistics, this year ‑ ‑ a couple years ago you guys might have noticed I did a media
server and this year it turned into an engineering problem, how do we get data to you so
quickly, you are not downloading all CON long, so we bought these duplicators and next year we
will have a duplication village. And we served up 4 [indiscernible] of hard drives
and we could have done more, but three fails. 3% fail your on disks and the number one culprit
tending to be Western Digital Green Drive. Be careful if you are using those, they might not
last very long. I want to call up a couple of people that have run some services and I'll let
them step through some slides and let you know what's going on. First up, I want you to get
Effen ready. Effen is the man and he put together some statistics for us. >> I'm
sorry, we have a little tradition here at DEF CON. We with have been thanking first
time speakers all weekend long, I think we need to thank the first time attendees. So
[indiscernible] if you could come up here, a shot for the first time attendees. >>
[Applause]. >> Back on? >> Hello. >> Still alive? So let's do this really quick for
the sake of time, we're going to make these slides available on DEFCON.networking.com. What we
do is wired infrastructure and wireless for the [indiscernible], they are able
to make [indiscernible]. What's different from last year? We got more gigabits. So we did some
upgrades and thank [indiscernible] for doing most of this. We got a new firewall,
and you can read all of this, the wireless gear we got some new modules for the controller
that we have, and a media server that DT brought was really awesome and he's going to talk
more about that, right? >> Yeah. >> So I'll leave it for him. And, of course, Rich as
well. So for the first time, we're going to actually see the network topography of DEF CON.
>> [Laughter]. >> So the airplane is the network and you guys are around it, right? We
have some good attendees and some not good ones. At the end of the day, it's a freaking
hacking conference, right? >> [Laughter]. >> So that's what we do all week and tonight or
today we feel kind of like this. But it sort of worked for the most part, as far as we know. So
some challenges that we usually have and we change every year, this year was again IOS devices
with [indiscernible] access certificates, that's why it took us a little why to put the Wi‑
Fi server there because we want to make it easier for you guys. I'll put some notes on the
slides later. And there's never enough time. Wednesday night we planned to go to dinner and we
were like, you know, dinner is going to be off. So that's how it is. During the conference,
some of the devices were not really behaving like they should. Unplugged APs and all
that good stuff. Some is of the steps, that's what people like to see, so we have 120 megabits
uplinked to the Internet. We reached, I think, about 100, so it's not too bad. But the
internal amount of data that we transferred was way, way bigger than the past few years. So
congratulations to you guys for using it. And we have 4300 devices registered, that doesn't
mean much or doesn't mean anything, but it's good, right? It's a lot of stuff. Wi‑ Fi
statistics, specific to the wireless network, we have about 50 access points, 41 access
points providing service and antennas and monitors, just watching what you guys are
doing. And we get about an average of 600 users per hour during CON time and hacks about
2000 per day. >> [Off mic]. >> Trust me, I know you can. DC TV broadcast the reel, booms.
>> How many of you watched? >> How many of you watched? Pretty good. These are the drunk
people. One of the things the video man did was played the background documentary. This is
the knock team, I'm not going to list any one, we have the old timers and four new that helped
with everything, including get drunk in the off hours that they didn't work. And I want to thank
every here, I want to thank Will, Cheryl, who was on every single e‑ mail we sent to
everyone, Cesar, On‑ Core, the one random guy that drops snacks for us and we get feedback
during the conference and some of them are very constructive. So this is how you get the
slides later. This is the e‑ mail to send the feedback. And that's it. Thank you. >>
Thanks everyone. >> [Applause]. >> Okay, this year we have a new contest called PD
Francis X hour film that long time Dune Waz put on and we're going to show you the winner, so
Waz, take it away. >> Hello. That person has had too much to drink. >> [Laughter]. >>
First off, it was a team effort, my buddy, I don't drive cars, yes, that's his handle, I guess
he didn't drive cars, but he's supposed to be walking up here right now as well. So he's not
here. Anyway, okay, so this is the first year of what we hope will be a multi-year project
that PD Francis X hour film contest. It is a 5 minute film contest. This year the attendees
or the registration teams fill up, register, they have 48 hours to make a 5 minute film from the
time they register. This year's genre was science fiction. We had 7 teams registered. Four of
them provided awesome, awesome entries. We even had two celebrity judges. Crap, where
are my glasses? I can't see. >> [Off mic]. >> Do you want to plug in here? >> So we had
Willy Nubank and Brian Nappenburger who directed the [indiscernible] and the Internet
boy that was played this weekend. >> Where is the thing that I click with? Thank you.
Okay, so ‑ ‑ great, and the winner is, after we tell you what ‑ ‑ okay, great. This is
exactly ‑ ‑ . >> [Laughter]. >> This is exactly the way we rehearsed this. >> [Off mic].
>> Try turning it off and on again! >> [Laughter]. >> [Cheering]. >> So, here you
read it. You get to read them then. >> Okay. >> Go ahead. >> The [indiscernible] on our
celebrity Director that is going to announce the winner is messed up, so we're going to dub. >>
My name is Brian Nappenburger and I'm a writer and Director ‑ ‑ . >> Oh. >> It's playing
in the background still. >> VIDEO: To choose a winner. >> There it is, all right, I'm
going to start it back at the beginning. >> VIDEO: Hi, I am Brian Nappenburger
[indiscernible] and it's pretty [indiscernible] here. This year 7 teams [indiscernible] it was
tough to choose a winner, but one definitely stood out [indiscernible] just an in
depth, massively [indiscernible] special effects. The winner of this year's [indiscernible] is
[indiscernible]. >> [Cheering] >> VIDEO: [Indiscernible]. >> [Laughter]. >> VIDEO:
[Indiscernible]. [Laughter]. [Music]. [Cheering] >> Unfortunately, the winning team
could not ‑ ‑ Uber Lab could not make it. Everybody say bye. >> Sign up next year! >>
Everybody sign up next year, please! >> That went really smoothly. All right. >>
[Laughter]. >> So we need I‑ Hat Charities who is going to talk about this. Where are you,
Stealth? >> Come on up here. What are you doing over there? >> Okay, what do I do now? Oh,
yeah, I do my thing, okay. >> Hello, DEF CON. >> Hello! >> Okay, well, let's see, we're all
having a good time now. You know, I've been involved in the fundraising here for some time
and it just ‑ ‑ . >> [Off mic]. >> Do I have slides? >> [Off mic]. >> Those are
somebody else's numbers. Those are somebody else's numbers. Yeah. Anyway, I've been involved
with this a long time and it continuously amazing me of our community here how willing they
are to help and share with others and whether it's returning a lost wallet or
giving blood, you all continue to excel and exceed everyone's expectation. There are many
charity, large and small, and one of the charities was a hackers space called Den Met,
and with the help of Mohawk, they were able to raise [indiscernible] and we think
that is great for them, help them get off the ground. >> [Applause]. >> Now I know it's
a long way from here, but probably some of you know where Uganda is on the map, it's a
developing country and people there need a lot of help. And back in 2007, John and Jen Long
started a nonprofit for them, they are working with lots of people, thousands of students
are being trained by them on computers and computer application to prepare them for
the future. And the future is coming soon for them because Google is considering wiring
their capital with fiber and we are trying to give them those skills. One was raised and I
would like to name them. Gamers for a Good Cause gave $45. Mohawks have raised $820 for the
cause. >> [Applause]. >> There's no doubt that Eddy Mise is a pillar in our community, I
guess that's the best I can put it because Eddy has raised $4,100 for the Hackers for
Charity cause this year. That brings us to total of $5,900.59. But wait, that's not all, at the
Hackers for Charity booth, you guys really came out and they raised $27,633. Thank you DEF
CON! Thank you all! >> [Applause]. >> Now we're going to move on to [indiscernible] to
make it a little more stream time since there's a lot of people to do stuff. So we'll
start out with everybody else besides the big fundraiser, Hack purchased $4,500, Mohawk
[indiscernible], it's pretty amazing. 4220, these were not fully tallied yet. Info booth,
Eddy that's wrong $4,100 for Eddy, half of that he raised to charities and DC Dark Net by
selling the badges, another 3,000, is that it? Yep. And now we'll move on to one more for a
subtotal of $15,933 for EFF. But, wait, there's more! The Summit, at the door we raised
$19,770. $2,579 in auction items, cash, there were a lot of credit charges, $720 cash for
the raffle, $13,000 in VIP presales. $2,500 in general sales, credit cards where it was
the door auction or something else, $9,075 for an in‑ room total of $48,000 plus the EFF
booth raised another 10,000, for a grand total of $58,000 raised just in four hours. >>
[Applause]. >> So we want to point out that was a Thursday night party hosted by Vegas 2.0.
If you tack this extra $58,000 on that, you can do the math, we raised a ton of money over the
last $10 years. So far we have a grand total of $64,284 plus their own booth donations of
$58,711, so we broke last year's record of is hundred thousand by about $14,000. Thank you so much
for your contributions to the foundation. And here from the electronic fund [indiscernible]
foundation is Kirk to receive you. >> Thank you, thank you, thank you, it's so great to be
back among this community here. Your support from the individuals who came up to
become members to all of the wonderful people who found creative ways to raise money for
us, it's the support from this community that really helps us keep going and you are helping
us defend the Internet, defend the hacker community, and we can't thank you enough, so thank
you, thank you, thank you. >> [Applause]. >> Already, Blood Code. >> Come on down. >>
You have to move faster than that. We're going to cut off your hugs. >> I need a hug!
>> [Laughter]. >> Hello, thank you very much! Oh, yay! >> [Cheering]. >> That's not
the first time it's happened, but it's one of the best. Thank you DEF CON for being a great
community and turning out and helping with Blood Code. I have bad news, we only have 90 units
this year, no way to pussy foot around on that one. I do know I talked to DT recently and we're
going to be creating a bleeding edge track next year where we're going to have volunteer speakers
come out, it will be interactive entertainment so you will bleed and you will be entertained. You
will learn while you bleed, so that should help. I'm not going to take up too much more of your
time, but I think it's important, Julie, who could not be here, she runs the blood
donation, she had some new timers saying why are we having a blood drive? Who is this blood
person and what is that about? The key thing is we're having a blood drive because it helps.
Hackers aren't just about fixes computers. We're supposed to be fixes everything we see wrong
with something and that's what it's about. It's trying to do something good. It's trying to
show a positive impact. It's showing people that don't know maybe how to hack an airplane or
hacking something like that, but they are seeing good things come out of this conference and one
of those things is they are helping people that they are never going to see live by
donating blood. And that is a beautiful thing and that's one of the things we should be
showing our community and what we do. Thank you DEF CON for hosting that. Thank you for
being so supportive. And thank you guys for actually bleeding for the cause. >> [Applause].
>> All right, hi, everybody. Over in the sound theater, separate from all of you crazy
people, we ran Rootz Asylum where I is a nonprofit we teach kids 8 to 16 how to be hackers.
This year we had 400 attendees, kids and their parents. So record number again. >>
[Applause]. >> And what's a little different about the kids event besides they are smaller
and sweeter, it's about 50% girls. >> [Cheering] [applause] >> Which is really
great to see. So what we try to do is bring in the most famous hackers in the world to teach
the kids. This year we had 30 presentation. Some of my favorites were [indiscernible]
and Howard taught the kids how to elevator hack. Thomas Cross taught all the kids how to break
into [indiscernible] machines. Charlie Miller taught us how to hack airplanes. Teresa, princess
security at Google actually donated 300 phone books for every single kid. She taught
them how to pone them. >> [Applause]. >> I'm always looking for more kids' speaker,
so if you have kids that have some amazing research, please have them reach out to us on the
website, rootz.org. This year we had to kids that presented. [Indiscernible] taught kids how
to do metaswipe. And muffin boy talked about White House hacking. We also have lock
picking, name that VLC, code breaking, hacker Jeopardy and landsmithing. We have a lot
adults come and they want to see what's going on. So what we have actually done is launched roots
TV so you can find us on YouTube, so all of you here can see what we have been up to.
Thanks so much. >> [Applause]. >> All right, just an interesting note, I wanted to
tell you, we kind of can compile the statistics of how much time we have put into this show just
on‑ site and if one person in the audience were to work full‑ time as much time as all the
staff on DEF CON worked, you would be working full‑ time for four years just to make this
happen. So I'd like to get [indiscernible] coleslaw up here for the black badge event for
contest. >> [Applause]. >> So for those of you who don't know, black badges gets you into
DEF CON for life. And we've done sort of a reboot this year for a couple of reasons. So contests
historically have gotten black badges aren't and contests that haven't are. So what we're doing
is creating a black badge hall of fame and going back into our history because we are moving so
fast, just like everything else, we are not capturing our history. We are going back and
figuring every person that got a black badge, what team they were on and trying to create a hall
of fame for them. And we're trying to be better about the amount of effort you have to put
in to get a black badge. So to keep everyone on their toes, no contest new who was going to be
a black badge event except for Capture the Flag. A lot of these people didn't know the so the
contests were working extra hard to make it challenging and a really good game. A lot of teams
stepped up. Hackers R Us is going to go through the teams and name the teams who have
received entry for life. >> Coleslaw and I have been working really hard all CON long, we had
to make sure everything was well oiled and all of the things related to contests were going,
we kind of had to spy on every single team and see if they are really bringing it as contest
organizers and are they bringing it as contestants. So it's a lot of hard work between the two of
us. I'll let [indiscernible] introduce the first contest team. >> All right, and before
I introduce the first contest, I would just like to say thank you to the FTC for coming out and
doing the [indiscernible] hacking contest. How many heard about that or participated? >>
[Applause] >> For those who are not aware, the purpose of the contest was to help
eliminate the annoying callers. So thank you, thank you, thank you FTC people, I think they are
upfront, so let's give them a hand real quick. >> [Applause]. >> It's nice to be
working with the Government for once, let's say that. All right, and without further ado, we're
going to have the black badge. Deviant, come on up. >> Hello, hello! How many people came to
the lock pick village? >> [Applause]. >> How many people came to shot holes in things?
They are both about penetration. We ran the Black Bag contest competition. It is a break in
and break back out kind of contest. Every who saw it and played it knows how much goes
into, you know it's fun. Follow the program. In third place, we had Sex [indiscernible] from
Salt Lake, Utah. 1297 points, really excellent job, they did a fine job. Big applause for them.
>> [Applause]. >> In second place we had the Normative Deviants, I guess they were out
to garner favoritism and they were the only team to get Jack a computer out of the wall and
switch the power. Big hand for the Normative Deviants. >> [Applause]. >> But in first
place, we had our German friends the Strange Invaders, here they are, big hand. >> [Applause].
>> Over 1500 points, virtually every single be objective, they did the fastest time, 6 minutes
and 50 seconds. They were freakin' rocking in and you guys are absolutely amazing. You're
wonderful and we have some wonderful things for you here. You got your locketrons? >>
Yeah. >> You also get this >> [Applause] >> Thank you so much. And it was as much fun
as winning cannonball, but half as illegal, so do a lock break in. >> [Applause]. >> All
right, up next we have is Capture the Packet. >> How is it going everyone? >>
[Cheering]. >> This year we did the packet hacking village, what did you guys think? >>
[Cheering]. >> One of our events was the capture the packet event and it was chosen
to be a black badge again this year, we did some ridiculous stuff again. As team
[indiscernible] here, the first place winner, give them a hand, right? >> [Applause]. >> So
there was a picture of a key and they had to decode the pins on the key. [Laughter]. So we kind
of mixed in a little bit of stupidness, but we want to congratulate them, they are
getting a black badge for it. And then, awesome, here we go. And then for dark
[indiscernible], we have hiss packet packing village staff badge. >> Excellent. Now I can
go in the room >> [Laughter]. >> Locked out [laughter]. >> But thank you, everyone. We're
glad that you all enjoyed the event. Thank you all much. >> [Applause]. >> All right. Keep
this party going. Next up we have DEF CON dark net project. >> [Applause]. >> Who wants
a T‑ shirt? >> [Cheering] >> One of the last 36 limited edition T‑ shirts we got printed
up for the crew this year, so enjoy this. The DEF CON dark net project was an MMO in real life
we set at DEF CON and instead of talking to somebody with a yellow question mark over his
head who sends you on a question to get 14 virginal rat scrotums, we send you on things to learn
skills, learn to you to crack password, learn how to soldier. It was a lot of fun. We had over
330 people playing. 137 were actively playing. And we have the top three. Before I do, I
want to thank my crew, Zero Altitude, Flesh, Bunny, Skater, Gator Bite, and a last minute
addition to the crew, F9. Thank you all so much. The other thing that, probably the best part
about this game that I have been told about is the diversity of the people who play the game. We
have a lot of women and a lot of children who are playing this game. The whole point of it was
to teach people, assuming zero knowledge and teach you how to do these things as opposed to
seeing how weak you are already are. In that way it's a unique game. I want to thank everyone
for playing that. In third place with 4788 points was Caspian. Second place with 5097 place.
And with 6590 point, we looked to make sure he wasn't faking it, it was Silk. Come on up
here, Silk. >> [Applause]. >> Can I keep this? And best yet we got $3,000 for the kits.
We will make more next year. So thank you very much. >> [Applause]. >> Oh, one more
thing, one more thing. The DC dark knight is not just at DEF CON, you can play it online all
year at DCdark.net. >> All right, up next we have [indiscernible] with Capture the
Flag. >> Hey, how many people waited to get into the FCCPF room? Are books too hard to
throw? Anybody want a book? >> [Cheering] >> Hey, you said it wasn't too hard. Don't be a
wimp. So look, I've got ‑ ‑ that was an epic fail. Okay. So ‑ ‑ book, book, book. Book. >>
[Cheering]. >> Yeah, I love the excitement. Here we go. Okay, dive for those. Okay,
listen, first thing first, I've got to thank dark tangent because this year he turned the
village into an actual DEF CON track and we have 6 or 7 human based speeches and it was
awesome. You guys were lined up for like 45 minutes outside, so thank you. Thank you. And it was
recorded. So it will be on the DEF CON DVD, so that's awesome. I have to mention the second
place winners, so we have SECTF, Nikita mentioned the thing for kids was a DEF CON event, the
kids rocked it. And then our SECTF second place winners was Grossial Engineers. Come on.
>> [Applause]. >> They got some cool SEC stuff. I have a minute and 40 seconds. I'm going
to talk fast. Okay. The team that we had, we had tag teams that had to go in the booth at
the same time and tag out and things like that. And what we had was the first team, the guy
got sick, you know, sick at DEF CON and he couldn't make it. So we yanked the guy out of the
audience and we said you're going to get in the booth and be this woman's partner and we'll
give you half an hour to prepare. And they won. They didn't just win, they beat them.
Here's the best part. It's his wife. >> [Laughter] >> Smooth operator, come on up.
>> [Applause]. >> And the best part is the black badge, whoa! >> [Applause]. >>
That's going to be a fun ride home, I guarantee it. Thank you, guys, we'll see you next year.
>> [Applause]. >> All right. Next up is open CTF. >> [Applause]. >> Hey, guys, so
my name is Sowen and I'm part of brand Ram Open CTF this year. And open CTF is a Japanese style
competition where the challenges range from every single person in this conference can do it to
very, very hard challenges. We had tons of people really excited about this and we were
really sad it didn't happen this year, so we put a bunch of time, got the contest together, and we
had so many people wanting to play, we ran the competition on an modem so we had people coming
together and soldering modems to play with us. We had half a dozen countries represented. Let
me read off the scores, third place we had an Australian team 4979 with 3700 points. We had a
French team, their first time to DEF CON they played, [indiscernible] with 4200
points. And then our winning team, [indiscernible] 9, come on up team, with 4900 points. >>
[Applause]. >> Souvenir is the backbone for all of the telephone systems used in the
competition. >> [Laughter] >> Thank you very much and we welcome everyone to play open
CTF next year. >> [Applause] >> All right, I assure is you folks, we're in the homestretch.
We're getting there. Another black badge contest event here is right here on stage, Mr.
Loss who talked about his content. >> [Applause]. >> So those of you that saw the
1057 room on the conference floor and wondered what it was, if you wandered in at 5:30 you
would see people working and it was part of the badge challenge. How many of you saw the lanyard
site? If you look at the back of your lanyards, there's a symbol with Chinese and Korean codes to
weave together a lanyard that drove you to website. They were UTL curious dot codes and this
is an example of one of the many steps that the badge challenge took this year. I'm humbled
every year by the ingenuity and the people that make it through the badge challenge, it's a very
difficult contest and it's very humbling to see this. So the MFL guys, if you can come up here as
quickly as you can because we're on a timeframe. Run, run, run. These guys are the Muppet
Liberation Fund.
>>> [Applause]. >> Can you guys, for like, 30 seconds, give a quick what it's like to go
through this? Because I think is lot of the news don't have a clue what you guys went through
to do this. >> I can tell you we showed up on Wednesday evening and we just stopped, was
it yesterday morning? I'm not sure on the days at this point. But in 3 days, two all‑
nighters, a bunch of guys in a room, and our brains are still bleeding a little bit. But we
did it! >> [Off mic]. >> I mean, well ‑ ‑ . >> Anything that was difficult? >> Things
we hate you for? Well, we didn't sleep at all. I was in the room with a bunch of people who were,
and yeah, that's a shout out for everyone else who made us work as hard as we did. My teammates
were up in the room and they were like, can we go to sleep yet? And I was like, hell no.
>> [Laughter]. >> We have people on our ass, we're about to lose. So thanks to everyone
else who made us try as hard as you did. See you next year. >> [Laughter]. >> [Applause].
>> So an interesting side note, while ‑ ‑ I take it upon myself to not go to bed until
they do, so if they decide to continue to work, I stay with them. I ride shotgun right
alongside them. If you notice the code in the program this year and the weird numbers on
the pages, it actually decoded to a Google voice number, which with I'll give to the audience
and I'll tell why you in a second and that is 251A secret which called a phone that I kept
on my personal and from Wednesday on that phone has rung nonstop. So I have been getting
hundreds and hundreds of Google voice mails and I'm going to put them up on a website if anyone
is interested in seeing what crazy ass things you guys say into a phone that you get a
random number from a program at a hacker conference. It's quite interesting some of the things
that come through. My wife was saying some of the things were just quite terrifying. >>
[Laughter]. >> [Off mic]. >> Thank you. >> [Applause]. >> So one last quick thing, so
while we were in the contest room and they were working on the badge challenge, the EFF guy
said nobody has turned their shirts and they all turned their [indiscernible] on to that and
we solved it in 30 minutes. Thank you to those who competed. Those of you that are new, I
invite you to try your hand. There's a varying degree of difficulty. Welcome to DEF
CON and thank you very much for the teams that make the contest for me what it is. Thank you.
>> [Applause]. >> All right, last, but certainly not least, and this is I think one of the
coolest things that happens in the entire contest, the Capture the Flag team business
syndicate, come on up. >> [Applause]. >> Good evening. I'm Veto Genovest from
Legitimate Business and we have finished our first year of Capture the Flag. First, thank
you to the DEF CON community, the goons, and the community. We could not do this without your
support and friendship. As returning hosts, we decided to step up our game with new
challenges, a new processor architecture and new evil tricks. The most visible change
is the DEF CON Capture the Flag badge which includes an MSP 430 processor, a 900 megahertz radio
and a custom, exploitable network service called badger. We also had three armed services
and a service that switched from emulated 386 to ARM half way through the game. >>
[Laughter]. [Applause]. >> We apologize and you're welcome. >> [Laughter]. >> Also new
this year was an attack visualizer on the screen behind us built by Hoju. This lead to
the busiest Capture the Flag room ever. We've had a few growing pains, too. A new
scoring algorithm designed to keep teams from zeroing out to the bottom of the score board
resulted in teams resulted in teams zeroing out to the bottom of the score board. >>
[Applause]. >> We also had hardware crashes that made life difficult for a few teams. We
have re‑ tabulated the scores to make sure this was handled in a fair way. We know you have
improved your ‑ ‑ or we know how important your CTF time scores are, so we have recalculated the
scores to make it right. We'll be posting details, source code and database dumps soon. >>
Hi, everybody, I'm [indiscernible] from Legitimate Business Syndicate. All teams
have received the O Droid hardware that we hosted the games on this year. So do not
expect to see that next year. We are stepping up our game harder next year. I've of the team also
received a CTF badges to take home. They will build materials and build sheets for this later
on this year. The first place team will receive 8 black badges and 8 leather jackets. So
without further ado, I'd like to announce the winners. In third place, a new comer to DEF CON
CTF, dragon sector. >> [Applause]. >> I believe they are from Poland. I believe they
are from Poland. In second place, Kit Conn from Taiwan. And >> [Off mic]. >> Yeah, you.
And in first place, the returning chap ones, EPP, the Proud Parliament of Pony. >>
[Applause] [cheering]. >> It's a fun time. Everyone should play. It was a great contest and
see you guys next year. >> [Laughter]. >> [Applause]. >> Thank you and have a good
evening. >> [Applause]. >> If you wonder what we do with all your money, we make cool
podiums like this. >> [Laughter]. >> So, oh, we have a surprise announcement. So show
the depth of commitment our attendees will go to, come on up. >> Hey, everyone. My name
is Joe Grand. >> [Applause]. >> No applause, please. Okay, so this is, we had an
opportunity to turn a crazy dinner conversation into a fundraising event by permanently
marking the skin of our fine Shaggy from 303. And what we ended up doing is Shaggy got ale
really crazy tattoo with my signature on it and an logo of the jtagulator hardware hacking
tool, amazing art by Eddy, Crypt paid for it, so his signature is on there. Besides being
completely insane, Shaggy said, why don't we raise money and instead of doing Mohawks, we
permanently marked his skin. If you want to see it in person, you can come up here after the
event. Eddy is going to be standing with him. He'll lift up his leg, his fine piece of meat
right there, and you can throw a few bucks to Eddy, which is going to go to the EFF. Here is
a sneak peek. And come up, take a look. Give some money to Eddy for a little final EFF
fundraising. So thanks. And this just shows the commitment of, you know, people that are doing
stuff for DEF CON and for EFF and, you know, whatever you can do to make a change is
appreciated. So thanks. >> [Off mic]. >> I know, I know. Thank you. [Laughter]. >>
[Applause]. >> Okay. All righty. So there's been a lot of rumors floating around and while
I can neither confirm nor deny, I just want to let you know it's about that time to pack your
bags. No, people didn't want to know and I saw people tweeting people out, so I'm going to
confirm that those of you who have been tweeting and speculating, that we are moving
to the Paris. >> [Applause]. >> But like everything DEF CON, it's not what it seems
because we don't want to tell you ahead of time, it not that we don't trust you, it's that we
don't trust you. >> [Laughter]. >> So where we're at now, the Rio has about
160,000 square feet of space. We don't know what happened, we fill up fast and because we
don't take pre‑ reg, we do a lot of math and look at what Black Hat is doing and we try to
guess, but you guys came later than usual and more numbers than usual and it totally screwed us
up. So we're worried that 160 ‑ ‑ going from 160 to 175,000 square feet ‑ ‑ the Rio is
175,000, the Paris is 140, that's not going to be enough, so we've decided we're also
going to take over Bali's. So if you combine both of the square feet, we're going to go from
about 175,000 to 315,000 square feet. >> [Applause]. >> So it's sort of like this
embarrassment of riches, what do I do with 315,000 square feet? But lucky, I have you guys, I
have the community, so we are ‑ ‑ it's predictable, we're going to have more village, more
contests. Yes, hardware hacking village will increase in size. >> [Cheering] [applause]. >>
How many of you people remember the old Riviera we had the party spaces on the top floor? >>
[Applause]. >> Yes. So we have the entire 26th floor of Bali's and we have, like, 6 banks of
express elevators that only take us there. >> [Applause]. >> So you can expect to see parties
and shit happening on the 26th floor. I just want to say we will have plenty of space and
we're going to do a lot of cool stuff that we've only been wanting to do. Next year we
might have to close space off because we're not going to have enough stuff to fill it. >>
[Laughter]. >> Yeah, I'm not so sure about that. [Laughter]. The other thing is, you know,
those of you who are in registration lines that sucked and were out there and vortexing
around the pool. You have never done that before. Normally by Friday evening, you guys did
half way through Thursday. So I don't know what happened with the pattern change, next year,
it's not even going to be funny, we will have like registration everywhere. There's no way for
you not to get registered. Would you like a little registration with that? >> [Applause]. >>
So expect more kinds of music, more kinds of parties. Who enjoyed, compared to previous
year to this year, the variety of parties we had and spaces? >> [Applause]. >> Now who
saw the crazy robot Army that would dance to your band? So I loved that stuff and with all
this space next year, we're just going to have more stuff to really show case what we can do
as a community. I'm really looking forward to it. We might end up working extra hard, but
it's going to really rock next year am I want to give you guys the heads up to be ready for
that. And to make life a little easier for you guys, it's going to be surrounded by other
hotels, so it's easier to get to. So we have done a deal with the Paris and Bali and the
people who own those hotels, we will is a bunch of space around the Paris/Bali, so the rooms are
going to start at like $49 a night. >> [Applause]. >> Yeah. >> [Applause]. >> So
finally, we can get you cheaper housing and so we're going to have Planet Hollywood, the
Flamingo, the Quad, Cesar's and Bali's with good rates. >> [Applause]. >> So before we
shut it down and I call for a round of applause for everybody, I want to have everybody
acknowledge the awesome work the hotel has done here and how good they have been, a good home for
us for so many years and it's sad to outgrow them, but hey, you know, you've got to go, you
have to move on, you have to grow. Let's give a big round of applause for the Rio, they have
been awesome. >> [Applause]. >> [Off mic]. >> Okay, so with that, I'm going to
officially call it to a close and I will see you at the bar. Thank you. >> [Applause]
[cheering].
