Why It Mattered

It captures a narrow but real conference artifact: not an admission badge, but an electronic participant badge tied to a CTF, VR/physiological-sensor research protocol, and soft-skills assessment result.

Hardware

The recruitment statement proves an electronic SaikoCTF badge outcome for participants, but it does not describe the badge's electronics, display, power, firmware, enclosure, production quantity, or image rights.

Software & Apps

The source describes the SaikoCTF study workflow, simulated network, Kali Linux VM, scoring, soft-skills assessment summary, and research-data collection, but does not publish badge firmware, app behavior, or challenge binaries.

Lore

Participants visited the SaikoCTF area near Ballroom 1, used VR and physiological sensors, completed a one-hour CTF challenge, then received an electronic SaikoCTF badge and assessment summary after the study.

Operational history

Issues & Camp Impact

missing rights-cleared image note

No local HITBSecConf2024 Bangkok SaikoCTF badge image has been added because the official sources have not been paired with reusable image rights, attribution, and processing notes for publication.

The entry remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying PDF imagery, event imagery, screenshots, social-media photos, or generated placeholder art.

Confidence: local project policy
Status: needs licensed original replacement
Timeframe: current catalogue build
Source note: badge.gallery image policy, HITB Bangkok SaikoCTF page, and HITB recruitment statement.

privacy and sensor caveat note

The study context involved VR goggles, physiological sensors, questionnaires, challenge activity, and researcher check-ins, with the recruitment statement explaining data collection and participant procedures.

The badge dossier preserves the research-study context while avoiding unrelated claims about public badge behavior, firmware, or attendee monitoring outside SaikoCTF participation.

Confidence: official research statement
Status: documented
Timeframe: August 2024 SaikoCTF study
Source note: HITB Recruitment statement.

research participant scope note

The source trail proves an electronic SaikoCTF badge for research-study participants, not a universal HITBSecConf2024 admission credential or public attendee badge.

The record is modeled as a SaikoCTF participation badge so the catalogue does not overstate its distribution scope.

Confidence: official source but intentionally narrow
Status: documented source limitation
Timeframe: August 2024 event
Source note: HITB SaikoCTF page and HITB Recruitment statement.
