The Crypto & Privacy Village is returning to DEF CON 30, and we’re looking for top-notch presentations and workshops to fill our schedule. In the past, the Village has featured workshops and talks on everything from quantum crypto to FOIA, discussions on privacy and crypto tools, and a key signing party.

Passionate about cryptography or privacy? Interested in helping people encrypt their lives? Have a talk that’s better suited for a niche audience? Submit YOUR proposal to the Crypto & Privacy Village Call for Presentations and Workshops!

This year we’re excited to take the CPV audience Back To School! We’re encouraging our speakers to help our newest visitors, as well as longtime supporters, to connect with this part of DEFCON. Help us dig into the fundamentals of cryptography and privacy with 101 skills talks, “state of the field” overviews, and the histories and mysteries that shaped the places these topics take up in our world today.

Please, no sales pitches. If you have a unique perspective related to your company’s products, please make it as vendor-neutral as possible.

Please note that the Crypto & Privacy Village is not the place for talks about cryptocurrencies. Do you have a talk about the blockchain? Please make sure it relates to a topic in cryptography or privacy.
