Surface Mount Electronics Assembly for Terrified Beginners
In this workshop, we will learn how to assemble tiny parts on circuit boards by building an electronic touch-activated purring kitten. Anyone can do it. Yes, even you who never touched anything electronic before. Takes 120mins, 20€/kit, avoid caffeine immediately before. Max 10 participants per session, sign up on PAPER at the Hardware Hacking Area.
Takes about two hours. Basic workshop. No prior knowledge needed. Materials cost 20€ per kit.
We are going to build an electronic kitten using tiny tiny SMD parts. It will purr when you touch it right and hiss when you touch it wrong. It's going to work. You will learn how to make your hands not shake at all ever. You will learn how to activate your builtin precision positioning superpowers.
For people afraid of surface mount assembly/rework. You know those tiny little components in modern electronic devices? It's both possible and easy to assemble those by hand. You can do it, and I'll teach you how!
Think you don't have the tools? Think you can't manually place 0402s? Everything is possible with patience and practice. The equipment is minimal and you probably already have it. We'll learn the answer to THERE'S A SHORT ON A TINY PART OMG WHAT NOW? After this, you'll no longer need to be scared of SMD. Avoid caffeine immediately before the workshop, because shaky hands are a disadvantage.
The workshop kit costs 20€. Please SIGN UP ON THE PAPER LIST at the Hardware Hacking Area. PLEASE BE ON TIME!

What do big tech, synthesizers, the crucifixion and Matthäus Passion have in common? Find the answer in the tech performance The Silicon Passion. We’ve all embraced big tech —but is it a warm hug or a strangulation? Bear witness to a debate of biblical proportions between tech nerds, technology and its users. In The Silicon Passion SETUP, in collaboration with de Transmissie (David Schwarz en Derk Stenvers) and Rodrigo Ferreira, is looking for a way out of the pit that technology has ...

Lightning talks are a 5 to 10 minute quick talk on an interesting subject. They can be with or without slides, and with or without proper preparation. if you weren't accepted in the main CfP, this is also a great opportunity to give an abridged version of your talk. These sessions will be available to sign up to later on, with details on the wiki: https://wiki.mch2022.org/Static:Lightning_Talks

This is a submission for a keynote talk at MCH2022. The Internet is both a familiar, comfortable place as well as a bottomless rabbit hole you can lose yourself in. The Internet has always been like this from its inception, the difference now is the scale and consequences are almost immeasurable - and it tests the limits of human imagination. When you look into the mirror of the Internet what you see reflected back depends on what you are looking for. It has become largely a reflection of ...

Have you ever forgotten a passphrase or lost a hardware token? Lost access to enough Bitcoin to buy a pizza or two? Encryption is fundamental to securing our liberties, but key and password management remain difficult even for professionals, let alone the general public. This talk presents Passcrow, an Open Source project attempting to address one of crypto's largest usability issues: password and key recovery in a decentralized environment.

Thanks to DNSSEC and DANE, it is possible to automatically verify user@domain.name identities by checking with domain.name servers. The real problem however, is integration with existing protocols, instead of inventing something completely new and perhaps web-only. The purpose of our work on Realm Crossover mechanisms has been to design generic solutions that extend many different application protocols, without changing their protocol specs.

Utilizing collaborative security to collect data on attacks we were able to detect Log4J in a quite unusual but effective manner. We'll show you how CrowdSec enables the entire infosec community to stand together by detecting attempts to exploit a critical 0day, reporting them centrally thereby enabling anyone to protect themselves shortly after the vulnerability was made public. The unusual part is that this is done using FOSS software and by analyzing logs of real production systems but in a ...
