Starting the thread. First year going to Defcon for me so I'm just assuming everyone is out to get me.? Here are the precautions I'm taking but please feel free to point out flaws or additional items. Laptop running Linux w/ up to date patches Full drive encryption using Truecrypt Firewalled using iptables Laptop will be wiped clean upon departure
Sounds harsh but do you really need to take your laptop? I've been to cons where I've not even got it out of the bag. I carried it round the first day and left it in the hotel room the second. You can check your mail and twitter on the iPhone, do you need much else? Robin
