BSides Las Vegas

Publisher of the official 2019 registration FAQ used for participant badge, badge-allocation, no-walk-in, and badge pickup evidence.

Why It Mattered

It fills a major North American Security BSides lineage without falsely upgrading a registration credential into electronics. BSidesLV sits beside DEF CON in the Las Vegas security summer-camp ecosystem, and its badge scarcity, pickup lines, and badge-type queues are part of the real attendee artifact history.

Hardware

The public source trail proves a physical conference admission badge model and participant badge categories, not a PCB badge. The official FAQ says badges were required for entry and describes participant badges, sponsor badges, donor badges, speaker badges, hotel-guest badge entitlement, and separate lines for different badge types.

Software & Apps

No firmware, schematic, badge app, embedded electronics, hardware challenge, or repository is claimed for this record. The recoverable behavior is registration and access control: securing a badge ahead of time, receiving pickup details by email, and using the correct on-site badge-type queue.

Lore

The 2019 Join Us page says BSides Las Vegas was at capacity every year and would no longer accept walk-ins. The Registration FAQ documents the shift away from walk-in badges, room-block reservations that entitled hotel guests to two participant badges, donor/sponsor/volunteer/speaker badge paths, and Tuesday/Wednesday registration booths with separate badge-type lines.

Operational history

Issues & Camp Impact

missing rights-cleared image note

No BSides Las Vegas 2019 badge image is published because the archive pages and registration media do not provide a specific reusable original badge photo or official upstream raster with complete source URL, license, attribution, and processing notes.

The entry remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying logo, event-site, attendee, or social imagery without a clear catalogue reuse basis.

Confidence: local project policy
Status: needs licensed original replacement
Timeframe: current catalogue build
Source note: badge.gallery image policy, BSidesLV 2019 archive pages, and registration FAQ.

non-electronic scope note

The public source trail proves a badge-required admission model and badge pickup workflow, but does not prove an electronic PCB badge, firmware, schematic, challenge circuit, or hardware badge repository.

The catalogue preserves the major BSides Las Vegas badge lineage as an identity/access artifact without inventing electronics.
