The Crypto & Privacy Village is excited to announce its participation in DEF CON 31: The Future Will Prevail, and we’re looking for top-notch presentations, discussions, panels, workshops, show & tell, and *other* creative online content!

We’re excited to celebrate our 10 year anniversary backlit by the Glow of The Vending Machine together alongside as many old and new faces as possible with exciting cryptography and privacy content. We’re looking for a combination of pre-recorded and live content, and we’ll be accepting any formats from 5-minute lightning talks to workshops, panels, or hour-long streams. Want to stay anonymous? We can do that this year! (Use Tor.) If you’ve got an idea for something else you want to do, we’d love to hear it!

Passionate about cryptography or privacy? Interested in helping people encrypt their lives? Have you worked on data privacy in ML/AI datasets, digital surveillance, facial recognition or another topic very relevant in our highly virtual age? Have a talk that’s better suited for a niche audience? Submit YOUR proposal to the Crypto & Privacy Village Call for Participation!

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

Any use of generative AI for your CFP submission must be disclosed, but is not disqualifying by itself.

Live talks will be recorded (unless requested otherwise by the speaker).
