welcome to dc773

about us...

This is dc773, Chicago's _other_ defcon group. It's our intention to provide an avenue to a techno-centric hacker meetup in Chicago. We would like to see this group take a step beyond monthly discussions and collaborate on projects, actively conduct research and experimentation, and participate in hacker competitions (ctf, etc). While many members' primary interest is network security, I hope that the group's participants will drive the direction that the group takes.

what we are not...

dc773 does not compete with other local tech meetups and I hope to see some cross- pollination between forums. Other tech groups in the area fill a certain niche, just as dc773 strives to fill an equally important niche.

what we would like to accomplish...

We would like to drive dc773 to become a purposeful idea think tank. While members are encouraged to work on what interests them, we would like to contribute projects and content that give back to the hacker community, whether it be through research or education.

where we meet...

A meeting location or time has not been chosen yet, and I don't suspect to get into any sort of regular cycle until we gain some momentum. We're just getting our feet wet.
