Pyr0
<p>One batch file flatlined an entire school district’s network. That was 1994, in a town so small you could drive fifteen minutes and see nothing but the curvature of the earth. By sixteen he was building one of Wyoming’s first ISPs, and by 1996 he had already founded a Red Team. Then came twenty three years as a DEF CON goon, followed by an offensive security practice that scaled to 132 pen testers and nearly forty million dollars a year. He has breached security inside Ferrari dealerships, biolabs, and financial trading floors. If it had a lock, a network, a password, or a perimeter, Pyr0 found a way through it. Now he lives off grid in the mountains of Northern Colorado, running ham radio on solar, raising chickens, and still pulling sixty hour weeks breaking into things that were never supposed to be breakable. And this year, he's building something new. A conference on the beach at Carolina Beach, NC that is dedicated to preserving the stories and the history of hacking before they're lost to time.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>TIMESTAMPS</strong></p><p>00:00 Introduction and Background</p><p>09:44 Life Off-Grid: The Journey</p><p>19:10 Introducing naclcon: A Community-Driven Conference</p><p>26:55 Conference Planning and Logistics</p><p>32:10 Badge Life and Unique Experiences</p><p>37:03 Celebrating Hacker Culture and History</p><p>39:04 Organizational Challenges and Insights</p><p>42:00 Creating a Unique Conference Experience</p><p>47:12 The Vision for a Cybersecurity Bar</p><p><br></p><p><strong>LINKS</strong></p><p>[NaClCon Official Website] –<a href="https://naclcon.com" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"> https://naclcon.com </a>Main website for NaClCon where users can register, book accommodations, and access full event details.</p><p>[NaC Con Contact Email] – mailto:info@naclcon.com Official support email for inquiries about the conference, including registration and partnerships.</p><p>[Pyr0 (Luke McOmie) Email] – mailto:pyr0303@gmail.com Direct contact for sponsorships, collaborations, and communication with the event organizer.</p><p>[Fat Pelican – Carolina Beach] – <a href="https://fatpelican.com" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://fatpelican.com</a> – Iconic dive bar on the Carolina Beach boardwalk highlighted as a must-visit during NaClCon.</p><p>[Red Helm] – <a href="https://redhelm.com" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://redhelm.com</a> – Pyr0's company where he serves as VP of O
