BSides Lisbon 2026 Electronic Badge

Planned Portuguese Security BSides electronic badge; technical details pending

BSides Lisbon's current official 2026 About page says the October 29-30 conference will have talks, networking, an electronic badge, and a CTF. The official home and location page place the planned event at Auditório Prof. Simões dos Santos in Lisbon, and the current team page lists Pedro Umbelino under Badge. This is a source-backed planned electronic-badge programme, not evidence of a completed board, technical implementation, or badge-linked CTF.

Why It Mattered

It keeps the Portuguese BSides Lisbon lineage current while preserving the boundary between a clear organizer promise and a known badge build. The record makes a planned 2026 electronic badge discoverable without importing the 2025 badge's sponsor trail or treating concurrent CTF wording as a physical challenge specification.

Hardware

The official 2026 About page uses the term electronic badge. It does not identify a PCB, microcontroller, display, LEDs, sensors, radio, NFC/RFID, battery, charging method, connectors, dimensions, artwork, lanyard, serial or credential technology, manufacturing partner, production quantity, or final physical variant. No 2025 component or design detail is used as a 2026 specification.

Software & Apps

No 2026 badge firmware, app, repository, schematic, Gerber, BOM, flashing guide, protocol, license, badge-specific game, or CTF challenge implementation was recovered. The About page separately announces a CTF, but does not say it is physical, badge-linked, or technically implemented on the badge.

Lore

The official BSidesLisbon home identifies a two-day October 29-30, 2026 conference in Lisbon. Its location page names Auditório Prof. Simões dos Santos at Faculdade de Medicina Dentária, Cidade Universitária, and its current team page places Pedro Umbelino in the Badge section. The conference remains upcoming at this catalogue update, so no final fabrication, attendee handoff, recipient scope, sponsor, or image claim is made.

Concurrent CTF programme

The current 2026 About page also lists a CTF. It does not say the CTF is a physical challenge, uses the electronic badge, or has a badge-specific implementation.

Compatibility: BSides Lisbon 2026 conference context only; not evidence of a badge-linked CTF or software feature.

Issues & Camp Impact

badge and CTF relationship boundary note

The About page lists an electronic badge and a CTF in the same programme sentence, but does not say the CTF is physical, badge-based, or implemented by the badge. No challenge mechanics, source, scores, data flow, prizes, or results are public.

The catalogue records both official programme elements without incorrectly presenting the badge as a CTF device or asserting a physical challenge path.

badge-team role and allocation boundary note

The current team page lists Pedro Umbelino under Badge, while the About page promises an electronic badge. Neither page identifies design, hardware, firmware, manufacturing, sponsor, security review, support, ownership, licensing, compensation, or the final recipient scope.

A visible team credit can be preserved without claiming that the named person designed or built a particular device, or that any attendee class receives it.

hardware and software archive gap note

The official 2026 programme names an electronic badge but publishes no PCB, component list, controller, display, radio, power system, schematic, Gerber, BOM, firmware, app, source repository, flashing workflow, protocol, security model, or software license.

The catalogue does not turn the electronic-badge wording into assumed hardware, source availability, interaction behavior, or security claims.

missing rights-cleared image note

No BSides Lisbon 2026 badge image is published because the current official event, About, location, and team pages do not pair a specific factual badge image with a reusable licence or explicit permission basis, attribution, source URL, and processing record.

The planned Portugal record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying event graphics, team-photo assets, ticketing media, screenshots, social-media images, or generated approximations.

planned production and fulfillment gap note

The official 2026 About page advertises an electronic badge, but the event has not yet occurred. No reviewed source confirms final fabrication, attendee eligibility, quantity, sales/ticket tier, pickup, handoff, shipping, replacements, variants, or fulfilled distribution.

The entry preserves a concrete planned event promise without representing it as a completed badge build or universal attendee delivery.
