BSides Memphis is Back.  

Join us Oct 3rd 2026 for a day of collaboration and cybersecurity.  BSides Memphis is a community-driven, nonprofit conference for information security professionals. We connect engineers, researchers, analysts, and students to exchange ideas and build skills.

The event emphasizes practical talks, hands-on learning, and an open environment. Our volunteers work to keep access broad and affordable while delivering strong technical content.

Speakers cover topics ranging from the state of the cybersecurity industry to bleeding edge research on vulnerabilities, exploits, protection, and response.
