FAQ

This is fun, can I volunteer?

If you’re interested in this year’s volunteer opportunities, you can email volunteer at bsidesroc.com.

Are there ID or minimum age requirements to enter the event?

Vaccination or proof of a negative COVID-19 test with matching ID, and wearing a mask while in the BSidesRoc space will be required. No exceptions. Persons who do not meet these requirements including un-vaccinated children, will not be admitted.

While this is not a child oriented event, all are welcome.

What should I bring into the event?

In accordance with CDC guidance full COVID-19 vaccination or negative COVID-19 test results will be required by ALL attendees (including minors) to attend BsidesROC 2022. For attendees who are not fully vaccinated, a negative COVID-19 test result must be obtained within 72 hours (3 days) of attending BsidesROC. Please bring your vaccine card (copy or picture allowed) or proof of negative COVID-19 test within the last 72 hours to the conference. You will need to present it at registration.

You must wear a mask while in the BSidesRoc conference space.

Masks requirements include:

  • Mask should be a solid, multi-layer piece of material without slits, exhalation valves, or punctures.
  • A properly worn mask completely covers the nose and mouth and is well-fitted.
  • May contain filter pockets or sleeves.
  • Medical masks and N-95 respirators fulfill the requirements.

The following do not fulfill the mask requirements:

  • Face shields or goggles (unless to supplement a proper and properly worn mask)
  • Scarves, ski masks, balaclavas, or bandannas
  • Shirt or sweater collars pulled up over the mouth and nose.
  • Masks made from loosely woven or knitted fabrics that let light pass through
  • Masks made from non porous or too dense materials (such as vinyl, plastic or leather)
  • Masks that do not fit properly

Laptops are recommended if you’re interested in playing the CTF or crypto challenge. If you’re interested in career opportunities, we’d recommend bringing a hard copy of your resume.
