Announcing the Tor (not TOR) Research Workshop

We’re adding another awesome event to our lineup this year – a Tor Research workshop!

This workshop will quickly take you from a basic understanding of Tor and anonymity networks, to the nuts and bolts of Tor and the Tor Network. The end result will be a working knowledge of how Tor truly works, what tools can be used to apply research, and what various ways of contributing to the Tor Project.
At the end of the class you will be able to, explain the cryptographic mechanisms used in a normal Tor circuit, programmatically interface with Tor using Python, intercept, review, and fingerprint Tor traffic, write your own pluggable transport, and simulate your own Tor network at your home
The cost of this workshop is $10 – and includes a VM image, stickers, and class content for each attendee. Registration is limited, sign up is at http://roctor2015.eventzilla.net.
NOTE: Neither AntiTree or BSidesROC are affiliated with Tor or the Tor Project.
