ShellCon is an information security/hacker conference that breaks the mold by providing an open atmosphere of communication, collaboration, and a direct connection between speakers and the audience. But the ShellCon team also provides more: we aim to be a bridge between people just starting out in Information Security and the talented leaders in the industry. We expanded our focus to include training events throughout the year so that we can continue to connect with individuals who want to develop beginning through advanced skills in red and blue team roles.
