Issue dossier
The README names an ESP32 Dev Module, round LCD, RFID reader, microSD, RGB LEDs, four AAA batteries, and six-pin SAO pieces, but reviewed public materials do not establish the module/display/reader model, RFID protocol or frequency, schematic, PCB revision, component values, BOM completeness, antenna/data-path design, battery chemistry/holder quality, power path, current draw, voltage limits, SAO pinout/current budget, ESD/protection, thermal/fault testing, assembly inspection, user safety guidance, or compliance evidence.
A linkable camp-impact record with badge context, severity, evidence confidence, and source notes.

The record preserves the documented kit surface without converting it into an electrical specification, safe-build/use instruction, radio/RFID compatibility claim, battery-life estimate, or universal SAO-host guarantee.

- DC34 CompuNet Badge README and public hardware tree.
public hardware-project tree
Public source tree containing the project hardware, 3D-printed-parts, main-badge, SAO, and BOM areas. Its existence establishes an accessible project archive, not a verified final PCB revision, complete assembled-unit BOM, manufacturing result, electrical specification, safety validation, or completed event distribution.
Badge: DC34 CompuNet Badge — Malware Scan Tool 3000
public independent badge-project repository
Public GitHub project whose title, repository structure, and current README document a DC34 CompuNet Badge / Malware Scan Tool 3000 hardware kit. It establishes a source-backed, DEF CON-associated independent project, not DEF CON, CompuNet, or Critical Start authorization, ownership, production, sale, allocation, or delivery.

public kit and interaction documentation
Primary public source for the DC34 title, Defcon/CompuNet/Critical Start banner wording, kit inventory, assembly documentation, Arduino/SD-card workflow, RFID-slide interaction, companion SAO inventory, and no-image boundary. It does not prove a final manufactured batch, source-to-unit parity, company authorization, or reusable image rights.

public software and asset tree
Public project tree containing the Arduino-sketch, SD-card-asset, and ESP32-driver areas. It supports a public code/assets trail, not an audit of bundled installers or dependencies, an event-installed firmware build, security review, support commitment, or a safe flashing instruction.
