Conference Day 1 (10-Oct-2025)

RC Engineering Village

The Radio Controlled (RC) Engineering Village is an immersive, hands-on experience showcasing breakthrough technologies in defense, disaster response, education, and public service. Expect a dynamic mix of live demos, product unveilings, and student-led innovations that blend cutting-edge hardware with real-world applications.

Get ready to explore interactive displays and working prototypes that represent India’s next generation of engineering talent and technological capability

Radio Village

Dive into the Invisible World of Wireless Signals

Get ready to explore the airwaves at the Radio Village, where fun meets frequency. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned signal sleuth, this space is designed to educate, challenge, and entertain you with hands-on experiences, technical talks, and interactive games-all centered around Software- Defined Radio (SDR) and wireless communication.

TELECOM VILLAGE

Telecom Village brings two days of workshops, case studies, talks, and a Capture the Flag competition.

  • Day 1 covers telecom malware, real-world security incidents, VoIP threats, GPON, and eSIM exploitation.
  • Day 2 dives into stealth SIM exploits, LTE/4G security, and ends with CTF challenge..
  • What you’ll get: expert insights, practical skills, hands-on training, and a chance to apply your knowledge in real-world scenarios.

Adversary Village

Adversary Village is a community initiative and part of DEF CON Villages, which primarily focuses on adversary simulation, purple teaming, adversary emulation, and adversary tradecraft. The village covers a wide range of topics, including offensive cyber security, threat/APT/ransomware simulation, breach and adversarial attack simulation, adversary tactics, research on nation-statesponsored threat-actors, adversary intelligence, adversarial mindset and hacker survival skills.

The goal of Adversary Village is to build an open security community for researchers and organizations developing innovative approaches to offensive cyber security, adversary simulation/emulation, and purple teaming.

At a diverse range of conferences, we coordinate villages, capture-the-flag competitions, Hands-on activities, panel discussions, live demos, technical talks and workshops to engage and educate the security community.

Over the years, we have successfully hosted Adversary Village at various conferences, including some of the biggest in the world, such as the DEF CON hacker convention in Las Vegas and the RSA Conference in San Francisco.

IoT Security Village

The objective of this workshop is to provide a comprehensive, hands-on experience that bridges the gap between embedded IoT development and security. The workshop focuses on empowering participants with foundational electronics knowledge, IoT protocol design, actuator integration, and exposure to real-world vulnerabilities in connected systems. Participants will:

  • Develop embedded applications using sensors and actuators
  • Implement and analyze IoT protocols such as MQTT and CoAP
  • Understand network-level attacks on IoT ecosystems
  • Learn security best practices including TLS implementation
  • Perform bootlog and firmware analysis to assess system integrity
