Globally recognized training, Industry recognized fun!
At the Wall of Sheep, we have decades of experience hosting events of every size. We’ve run day-long training camps, massive week-long cybersecurity competitions, and, of course, the Packet Hacking Village at DEF CON which draws tens of thousands every year. We have a variety of events and games, built with the goal of inspiring and educating the public in all things security related. Check out some of our more popular attractions below:
In Rotation Events:
Capture The Packet
Capture The Packet is a world class cybersecurity trainer. Using this product, we’re able to customize unique challenge sets and create custom games for all skill levels. Featured at DEF CON, Code Blue, LayerOne and more. Visit the product page here for more information.
Packet Inspector
One of two specialized deployments of Capture The Packet, designed for beginners. We provide staff to help new players get comfortable and learn the basics of packet analysis.
Packet Detective
Our second specialized Capture The Packet deployment, Packet Detective is targeted at a “medium difficulty”. Best for quick-learning beginners or intermediate players. Our staff experts help people get going.
Wall Of Sheep
A fan favorite for over 20 years! The Wall of Sheep is an interactive look at how poor security practices leave us vulnerable. People learn in real time how logins and passwords can easily be captured, and “sheep” are gently educated on how to stay safer online.
Tamper Evident
What do tampered documents and seals look like? We can show you the tricks first hand. In this event, we build custom packages with all manner of tamper-evident devices, then grade players on their ability to get in and out unnoticed.
Walkthrough Workshops
Our team has experience giving interactive workshops and talks on the most sought after topics in the industry today. We can speak to current zero day threats, give keynote speeches, host hands-on workshops, or tailor a topic to your specific needs.
Lock Gauntlet
A perfect event for players wanting to learn locksport and physical pen testing or improve their skills. Lock Gauntlet provides locks ranging from beginner to near impossible for players to try and beat while racing against the clock.
Hardwired
Making network cable is fun… but what if it was also a time trial! In this event, players have to put their cabling skills to test while making cables and bridging connections on a live patch wall.
Talks & Workshops
Learn from the best in our instructor led talks and guided workshops. These are 1-2 hour classes that cover specialized skills or cover new and emerging tools.
Legacy Events:
These are popular events we’ve hosted in the past. While many of our events are fan favorites, technology is always changing. As a result, we sometimes take our older offerings and put them to pasture to make room for newer, more current games.
Sheep Hunt
This event was a real world scavenger hunt, hacker style. Players were armed with tracking antennas and set loose on the event floor to track down hidden wireless beacons. Great for getting people involved in a group!
Sheep City
A fun look into at the Internet of Things and its (lack of) security. Real world IoT devices and a real network were provided, and players were invited to hack around and cause some havoc. Staff helped players explore tips and exploits for some of most popular smart home devices at the time.
Juice Jacking
Back when free charging kiosks were a new thing, many people didn’t know that while their phone was charging, their data was leaking. This event was all about showing how the process worked, and how to prevent it.
WosDJCo
We also have a large group of hacker/DJ’s that come out with us to all our bigger events. They provide the dopest beats while you are learning about the newest tech.
YOUR ONE STOP SHOP
We’ve been doing this for over 20 years, and we know how to handle all the moving parts. We can build the perfect weekend event, one day presentation, or week long training camp from our specialized offerings. All you have to do is provide the direction, and we can manage the details.
Global Experience
At the Wall of Sheep, we have experience standing up successful events around the globe. We’ve helped to train people from all over the globe in several countries. No matter the size or scope of your event, we’re here to take it to the next level.
Where We’ve Been
Over the years, we’ve run organized events at most major infosec conferences around the country and the world. Here are just a few of the shows where you’ll find us throughout the year:
