official event page
CyberThreat's official page identifies the November 16-17 Roundhouse, London event and advertises an interactive hackable badge challenge. Its benefits copy labels the artifact a Digital Event Badge with the wording You don't just wear it, hack it - explore, attack and solve challenges throughout the event, while the event description cites team problem solving and hackable badge challenges. It still does not name a platform, app, PCB, or controller, and does not describe delivery or technical implementation.

Primary official source for CyberThreat's planned November 16-17, 2026 London event and its stated interactive hackable badge challenge. The September 28, 2026 recheck found the benefits copy labelling the artifact a Digital Event Badge that delegates wear and hack to explore, attack, and solve challenges throughout the event. It is a programme and artifact-label statement, not a 2026 hardware, allocation, fulfilment, or image-rights release.
