DragonJARCON 2026 Diploma-Track Electronic Badge
Announced exclusive electronic badge in elapsed five-day offensive-security diploma package
DragonJARCON's current official 2026 page advertises an exclusive electronic badge only as a benefit of its five-day in-person Offensive Security Diploma, scheduled in Medellín for September 14-18 and including entry to the September 10-11 DragonJAR Security Conference. The conference and diploma dates have elapsed: the official home now marks the 2026 congress as a past event and pivots registration to 2027, while the rechecked diploma page still reads as a pre-event sales listing. This source-backed record preserves the announced, package-scoped electronic-badge claim without asserting delivery.

Why It Mattered
It brings a current Colombian hacker-conference offer into the compendium without letting a broad event-kit description or a well-documented previous-year board fill in the 2026 gaps. The official wording is concrete enough to track the electronic-badge claim, but the record keeps its access scope, implementation, and post-date fulfillment boundaries visible.
Hardware
The official 2026 package says only that it includes an exclusive electronic badge. It does not identify a PCB, enclosure, material, microcontroller, display, LEDs, radio, NFC, sensors, battery, charging method, connectors, dimensions, artwork, serial or credential technology, production quantity, manufacturing partner, or final physical configuration. The 2025 DragonJARCON badge's published NFC/OLED hardware is a distinct prior-year artifact and is not used as a specification for this badge.
Software & Apps
No 2026 diploma-badge firmware, app, CTF integration, source repository, schematic, Gerber, BOM, flashing workflow, protocol, license, or interaction behavior was recovered. The event's publicly advertised CTF is conference context, not proof that this package-scoped badge implements a challenge or software feature.
Lore
DragonJAR Security Conference describes its thirteenth edition as taking place September 10-11, 2026 at Centro de Eventos El Tesoro in Medellín. Its current official page separately markets a five-day in-person Offensive Security Diploma with Jaime Andrés Restrepo Gómez on September 14-18, offering food and breaks, conference entry, certificates, and the exclusive electronic badge. The September 23 recheck confirmed the elapsed congress is marked as a past event on the official home, but no reviewed source reports diploma delivery, a final badge appearance, or recipient handoff.

DragonJARCON conference entry and CTF context
The diploma package includes DragonJARCON 2026 entry. The official event home separately advertises a standard 2026 kit and official CTF for the September 10-11 conference, but does not state that the standard kit is electronic or identical to the diploma package's badge.

Issues & Camp Impact
hardware and software archive gap
note
The official 2026 package uses the term electronic badge but publishes no physical form, component list, PCB, schematic, Gerber, BOM, firmware, app, source repository, flashing guide, radio/credential protocol, license, or security/privacy documentation.
The catalogue does not turn the word electronic into assumed powered hardware, NFC, a specific controller, a challenge, or a reproducible software stack.

missing rights-cleared image
note
No DragonJARCON 2026 diploma-package badge image is published because the official conference pages and reviewed retrospective do not pair a specific factual 2026 badge image with a reusable licence or explicit permission basis, attribution, source URL, and processing record.
The Colombian record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying event graphics, package illustrations, 2025 badge media, social-media images, screenshots, or generated approximations.

package allocation boundary
note
The official diploma benefits list calls the item an exclusive electronic badge, while the official conference page separately advertises a 2026 kit and CTF for standard admission. The reviewed sources do not identify a general-attendee electronic badge, compare the kit to the diploma artifact, or establish who ultimately receives either item.
The entry remains limited to the named diploma package and does not convert general conference-kit, CTF, or entry language into an electronic-badge allocation.

prior-year technology non-transferability
note
A credible 2025 retrospective describes a workshop-only Electronic Cats NFC/OLED badge with a 100-unit run. The official 2026 diploma page does not name Electronic Cats, reuse that hardware description, state a recipient count, or say the badge is a revision of the 2025 artifact.
Known 2025 NFC/OLED details cannot be presented as the 2026 diploma badge's components, maker, challenge, quantity, or eligibility conditions.

production and fulfillment gap
note
The official page advertises an exclusive electronic badge as a diploma-package benefit. The official home now marks the September 10-11 conference as a completed past event and pivots to 2027, but no reviewed source reports the September 14-18 diploma outcome, final fabrication, package sales, recipient count, handoff, pickup, shipment, replacements, variants, losses, or completed recipient allocation.
The record preserves a concrete announced offer without representing commercial copy as a completed build or universal fulfillment.
