Hacker Summer Camp has finished for yet another year, and you know what that means. The DC206 Post Summer Camp decompress cookout at Black Lodge Research!
Instead of our regularly scheduled DC206 meeting, head over to Black Lodge Research on Sunday August 19, 2018 at around 1pm to hang out with your fellow hackers/makers/geeks of various flavors. Did you catch some good talks? Contests? Parties? Did you learn something new/cool? Maybe you didn’t go at all, and just want to hang out with other folks equally as awesome as yourself. Come on by and strike up a conversation to find out what all the fuss is about. Or maybe you just love your friendly neighborhood hackerspace and want to come and enjoy some tasty food.
As should always be, our post-conference reverie will have delicious grilled meats (and non-meats for those who have stepped off the meaty path), a lot of sides, and a whole mess of other delicious things. If there is something you enjoy, bring it along! We’re an adventurous bunch, and new foods are always fun!
Once that big day-star begins to dip below the horizon, there is a strong possibility that a projector will find it’s way outside to show some thematically appropriate cinematic masterpieces.
See you there!

** DC206 MEETING PRESENTATION:
Fun With Electricity! An introduction to Erotic Electrostimulation
by uncle Ira
The type of electrical play that we are discussing here is called
TENS/EMS use. (Transcutaneous (through the skin) Electrical Nerve
Stimulation, or Electrical Muscle Stimulation) This stimulation can
provide a wide spectrum of sensations, from a light tickle through
extreme pain. This all depends on the placement of the electrodes, and
the electrical parameters of the signal applied. Electrical play does
require some experimentation, as every person has different responses to
electrical stimulation as well as preconceived notions of what to
expect. A basic understanding of electricity and its effects on the
human body will make this experimentation more enjoyable, and prevent
any unpleasant surprises.
This course will have hands-on hands-on demonstrations, both with
volunteers from the audience, and passing small TENS units and pads
around for participants to try on themselves, questions and answer
session afterwards.
I will be bringing an audio amplifier and speakers to let participants
hear what the various stimulation waveforms sound like. If someone
were to bring a pc-based oscilloscope, or spectrum analyzer along to
display the waveforms involved, it would add a whole new dimension
to the class.
Ira Moser, aka ‘uncle Ira’ is a kinky mad scientist, I’ve been ‘in the
scene’ for about 15 years, and doing demos of electro-sex tools and
techniques in local parties and events for the last five years or so.
Just recently having done a class in such. Involved in the
Defcon/Hack/Sec community for 20+ years, in business for 38 years, with
an emphasis on surplus hardware sales at MECO <https://www.meco.org/>.

DC206 MEETING PRESENTATION:
Securing the 2020 Election Process
by Dave Dittrich
The 2016 election showed that common phishing techniques work well against political campaign staff, allowing access to sensitive information and communications that are dumped, then pumped by sock puppets and individuals manipulated using advanced marketing techniques. The targeting of individuals for manipulation may have been driven by stolen voter registration roles, unethically obtained Facebook user data, and some votes may have been suppressed by alteration of voter roles and disruption of voter sign-in systems. A pair of Medium articles break this all down and identifies a gap in efforts to prevent a recurrence in the 2018 or 2020 election cycles:
This talk with focus on the principle gap — operational security of political campaign staff and candidates — and examine an open source platform that can address this gap. After this overview, interested audience members prepared with their own laptops will be taken through a “hands-on” exercise to stand up a subset of the proposed platform (the Trident portal component).
The hacker mindset takes knowledge of how a system works and applies it so as to make the system do things that most people (including those who originally developed the system) hadn’t imagined. The security mindset takes knowledge of how malicious actors compromise people and systems and applies it to incrementally improve the system so it is easier for users to “do the right things” (i.e., improve their daily OPSEC!) DC206 members can help prepare this system for use in securing the 2018 and 2020 elections by finding and fixing bugs, locking down components, helping complete or add new features, and hacking it to do even more things (like serving as a pop-up AlgoVPN server for securing yourself when traveling), or to use as a secure open source software development system with continuous integration/continuous delivery capabilities!
If you wish to participate in the hands-on portion, come prepared with at least the following:
* A Mac or Linux (Debian or Ubuntu) laptop.
* A DigitalOcean account.
* A DNS domain to use for your D2 system, pointing to the DigitalOcean NS servers. (This takes several hours to propagate, so definitely do this by Saturday night.)

DC206 MEETING PRESENTATION:
ICS Time Warp: Rolling back the clock 10 years
by Terry
Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are a poorly understood technology by many in security, yet are common to most corporations. The power management systems that run your favorite sports arena, the badging systems that unlocks many, many doors and the HVAC systems that cool critical data and control centers are all forms of control systems. With terms like smart buildings, smart cities and smart factories all falling under the Internet of Things (IoT) umbrella how do we defend, or my personal favorite attack, these systems. Come join us as we explore the different flavors of control systems and learn how to incorporate them into assessments, defense strategies and research projects. Too many systems, so little time…
This presentation will be videotaped, thanks to Colby.

We’re planning hamburgers, brats, a few chicken breasts, some vegetarian salad. The fridge has some beer and hard cider.

Veg[eteri]ans, there will be salad. Beyond that, please bring something you can eat; sorry.

Bringing an idea into the physical world with a CNC mill
by Phil
Design is complicated, and manufacturing is complicated. Integrating the two to play well with one another adds to this complexity. With this demo, I would like to give the audience a crash course in product and industrial design. It is my hope that you will learn to:
– discover a need for a physical product
– develop a scope of design criteria
– use the design criteria to develop a 3 dimensional model
– utilize Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) software to direct a manufacturing process (in this case, CNC ‘Computer Numerical Control” 3 axis milling)
Once we’re done with these, we’ll be utilizing our on-prem CNC mill to cut our part out of aluminum in a live demo!
