DEF CON 32

DEF CON 32 Payment Village

The Payment Village is bigger and better! This year we have a crammed schedule of industry experts presenting on a range of topics (checkout the Workshops page or hacker tracker for the full schedule). We have an entire infrastructure setup for hacking cards! Come and experience a virtual Point of Sales (Pos) terminal. Or have a go at hacking a real life PoS. We have our own cards that work with our environment to allow you to experience real card hacking. 

Want to try your hand at something physical? Try grabbing as much money as you can in our cash vault! Purchase and assemble the village badge or learn how to construct hardware in a workshop. Don't have a card reader? no problem! we have equipment for loan.
