Hack Together

Audience-driven security testing

The live event has ended

Event description

Take a front-row seat in a live ethical hacking session—where you decide the next move. Join cybersecurity expert Dale Meredith for an interactive, audience-driven ethical hacking session in which your vote directs the action. Brute-force a web admin portal or exploit a weakly secured database management interface? Scan for outdated web apps with Nikto or test manually for reflected cross-site scripting with Burp Suite? It’s up to you.

Using live polling and real-time decision-making, you’ll guide a professional pentest through a dynamic test environment replicating real-world corporate vulnerabilities.

This engaging hands-on format provides a unique opportunity to explore tools, tactics, and workflows used by ethical hackers, while sharpening your own analytical and security skills, whether you’re a seasoned security professional or a curious newcomer to the field.
