This year, we’ve combined both our community and the enterprise event at a brand new venue, in the name of HITCON PEACE, which is the acronym of “Protect Enterprise And Citizens Ever-after.” We hope that the energy and the spirit of the hacker community could keep protecting society and enterprises. To simultaneously satisfy the needs of the hacker community and enterprises, HITCON PEACE would not only introduce cutting-edge technologies but also covers practical information security content demanded by corporations.
【 HITCON 2021 】
Work from home, hack into home
Due to the pandemic of COVID-19, the lifestyle of humans had been changed fundamentally. Work From Home has become the required option. Our daily life has been furthered to the virtual world. Accompanied by humans taking more time to stay at home, the IoT home devices and services have become more important. Those devices and services will also bring more vulnerability and risk to cybersecurity.
We are also starting to prepare various activities and make sure HITCON 2021 can get close to the human lifestyle and deepen the link with the world. We believe only the HITCON can exceed HITCON. The HITCON 2021 will not only be a cybersecurity conference but also be a conference which can bridge the people and the world.Information:

【 HITCON 2020 】Herd Immunity for Cybersecurity
At this moment when old orders are facing comprehensive challenges, we seek ways to survive on the darkest road; while physical links are collapsing due to the epidemic, we aim to build a brand-new elastic defense and mindset by uniting the wisdom from communities and corporations. This is HITCON 2020, "We are the one."HITCON 2020 Hack in Taiwan Conference:

The theme for this year’s HITCON Community is “Trust in the Untrusted World”. Trust has always been a central theme in information security. Throughout the years, there are countless incidents that shows the critical role that trust plays, from the certificates that were stolen to sign APT malwares, to the widespread fake news problem. New developments in our industry also warrant our revisit to the trust theme.
A brand new year with new space, new activities, and new resolution! The HITCON CMT 2018 is hosted by HITCON GIRLS, The main topic will be “Blockchain”. Not only the physical Coolwallet of Electronic Board but also have a new cryptocurrency “HITCON Token”. During the conference time, the attendees will have their own digital wallet and use it to participate in the activity. Ex. the sponsor's booth or the conference will randomly launch the “Free Token” event.
The spread of large-scale attacks in recent years has made the atmosphere of information security even more intense. The resources invested by the national government, the change of mindset of the enterprise, the careful planning of education, and the vigorous development of the community all represent the process of Taiwan's capital security towards progress.
This year at HITCON Community (CMT), we don't set out theme limits. It is our hope that we can do without unnecessary restrictions and burdens, so that we can follow our aspirations and let HITCON return to its most primitive and pure form.
The theme of this year's conference is "Security of Things". HITCON launched special equipment Wargame, Hack2Own competition, and Incredible Hacking Awards, etc., and set up exclusive community activities to encourage all communities to stand on the stage to show the research results and promote their own spirit,
In this new era of rapid technological development, we are confronted with ubiquitous information security threats and vulnerabilities.
In today's world, wars are no longer just about airplanes and guns. We are facing an era of information warfare without the smell of gunpowder. This year, HITCON is ushering in a brand new future with the theme "Cyberwar: In hack we trust."
HITCON 2012, we cracked iCloud, AppStore, unlisted second-generation EasyCard and Citizen Digital Certificate, and invited foreign experts to share their experience.
In order to give participants a new experience this year, we have organized a hacker creative cross dressing competition, which is a chance for participants to show their imagination of hackers.In addition, during the conference, there will be "My ShowTime! Show yourself" exhibition space, which will be provided for participants to hold their own activities!
Due to legal restrictions and different national conditions, Taiwan's hackers cannot communicate as openly as foreign hackers.

In the first speech of the second hacker conference in Taiwan, we discussed the Security Ecosystem from an innovative perspective and analyzed the current situation and future development of the information security circle.
In Taiwan, due to the Internet intrusion and the lack of public understanding of hackers, the term "hacker" has been misled for a long time, making people think that hackers are intruders. As a result, hackers with real technology and sense of justice have participated in underground organizations or foreign activities, and even dared not discuss and publish the technology on the Internet.
