At #BSidesMunich2025 – NEINth Edition, you know you will see great talks, participate in top-notch workshops and network with folks in our community. But, did you know on November 17, we will also have a CTF and a Hardware Village?
-Capture the Flag-
Level up your hacking skills! Join the ultimate Secure Code Warrior Tournament at BSides Munich, hosted by the one and only Max Heintze. Get ready to code your way to glory! Join the competition for a chance to win the grand prize!
-Hardware Village-
This year, we’re handing out a limited-run development cartridge for the Sega Master System that lets you write, test, and run tiny homebrew experiments directly on real 8‑bit hardware. Take control over the Zilog Z80 CPU and its peripherals!
Each badge is a bare PCB; if you want it to become a working cartridge, bring it to the Hardware Hacking Village where you’ll solder, flash, and test it yourself on a real Sega Master System. But the fun does not end there, you can also test any code you want in the real hardware using the badge!
Here are some resources that will come useful if you decide to take up on the challenge:
