I had a very fun time visiting #Bahrain with the @defcon villages, trainings, and other people for #AICSBahrain #AICS2025 over the past week.

I was once again representing not only the broader community spirit of #DEFCON but playing music for @somafm in the Chillout Lounge which also hosted the Merch table.

The audio was great, the video element really help and added to my repertoire, and the reaction was very heartening. So few of those I talked to knew much about DEF CON, but everyone was curious and genuinely impressed.

What I will take away from the experience is that my perspective was shifted and improved, my love for travel and experience was reinforced, and my desire to share DEF CON and SomaFM with others is strengthened.

There is still time to register to join us for #DEFCONTraining at the Arab International Cybersecurity Conference & Exhibition hosted by the National Cyber Security Center Bahrain.

Still on the fence? Here’s what past students had to say:

“My first DEF CON & training and it was amazing!”

“Exceeded expectations. High-quality content, organized course, well-delivered presentation by an experienced teacher.”

“Fantastic and fun experience. Every single person was nice and approachable.”

“Absolutely killer. Amazing instructors. Top tier after 20+ years of attending trainings.”

Today’s #DEFCONTraining Bahrain Spotlight is “AI SecureOps: Defending AI Applications and Services” with Abhinav Singh on November 3 & 4.

Can prompt injections lead to complete infrastructure takeovers? Could AI applications be exploited to compromise backend services? Can data poisoning in AI copilots impact a company's stock? Can jailbreaks create false crisis alerts in security systems? This immersive, CTF-styled training in GenAI and LLM security dives into these pressing questions.

Engage in realistic attack and defense scenarios focused on real-world threats, from prompt injection and remote code execution to backend compromise. Tackle hands-on challenges with actual AI applications to understand vulnerabilities and develop robust defenses. You’ll learn how to create a comprehensive security pipeline, mastering AI red and blue team strategies, building resilient defenses for LLMs, and handling incident response for AI-based threats. Additionally, implement a Responsible AI (RAI) program to enforce ethical AI standards across enterprise services, fortifying your organization’s AI security foundation.

Today we have another #DEFCONTraining Bahrain Spotlight - “A Complete Practical Approach to Malware Analysis & Threat Hunting with Memory Forensics, Endpoint Telemetry, & AI-Driven Hunting” with Monnappa K A and Sajan Shetty on November 3-4.

This 2-day intensive, hands-on training teaches the concepts, tools, and techniques required to analyze, investigate, and hunt malware by combining four powerful approaches: malware analysis, reverse engineering, memory forensics, and endpoint telemetry-based threat hunting. The course begins with the foundations of malware analysis, Windows internals, and memory forensics, before moving into advanced concepts of malware investigation and hunting adversary techniques.

What makes this training unique and future-ready is the introduction to the concept of AI-powered autonomous hunting with the Garuda Threat Hunting Framework.
