identity-artifact classification · official source · documented

The recovered CrikeyCon IX sources prove badge pickup and custom accessibility badge/pin artifacts but do not prove an electronic conference badge.

The entry is intentionally modeled as a conference identity and accessibility artifact so the CrikeyCon lineage expands without inventing PCB, firmware, RF, CTF, display, or programmable behavior.

Source note: CrikeyCon IX schedule, archive page, and Humanitix ticketing.

identity-artifact classification · official source · documented

The official CHCon 2018 source proves identification tags/badges and badge challenges but does not prove that the attendee credential was an electronic PCB badge.

The record is modeled as an identity and challenge artifact so the CHCon lineage expands without unsupported microcontroller, firmware, display, radio, NFC, or CTF-on-badge claims.

Source note: CHCon 2018 event and sponsorship page.

identity-artifact classification · official source but no technical archive · documented

The recovered public trail proves a conference badge and lanyard sponsor context plus visible volunteer-badge requirement, but it does not prove an electronic badge, PCB, firmware, badge challenge, component list, schematic, production count, or final artwork.

The catalogue models the 2018 item as a conference identity/admission artifact and avoids upgrading sponsor and volunteer evidence into unsupported electronics claims.

Source note: Nullcon Goa 2018 sponsors page, volunteer page, schedule, venue page, and archive.

identity-artifact classification · official ticket inclusion wording · credential name documented; object form unspecified

The official ticket page calls the credential an Event Badge but does not describe a physical form, material, lanyard, printed design, barcode, QR code, RFID/NFC, electronics, PCB, component set, manufacture, or final variant.

The record is modeled as an identity artifact rather than an electronic badge or a more specific physical credential that public sources do not identify.

Source note: BSides Chennai 2026 official ticket page.

identity-artifact classification · primary writeups · documented

The sources prove a custom CR80 Hacker ID Card / reusable name-tag artifact and on-site card-printing workflow, but not a PCB, firmware project, badge challenge, or electronic conference badge.

The entry is modeled as an identity-card badge artifact and avoids unsupported electronics claims.

Source note: Security-Bits Hacker ID Card page, H2HC custom-card production post, and Need a New ID? follow-up.

identity-artifact classification and physical/technical form gap · official 2026 ticket page · named patron Special badge documented; artifact specification unreleased

The official patron-benefit list calls the item a Special badge at the event, but does not identify paper, plastic, metal, a lanyard, dimensions, artwork, barcode, QR code, RFID/NFC, PCB, controller, battery, display, connector, radio, firmware, app, manufacturer, quantity, or final physical form.

The record remains a conservative patron identity artifact rather than an inferred electronic badge or a more specific physical credential unsupported by the source.

Source note: BSides Seattle 2026 official ticket and patron page.

identity-artifact classification and physical/technical form gap · official 2026 flyer · identity artifact named; artifact specification unrecovered

The official flyer calls the item a fun badge for youth attendees, but does not identify paper, plastic, metal, a lanyard, dimensions, artwork, barcode, QR code, RFID/NFC, PCB, controller, battery, display, connector, radio, firmware, app, manufacturer, quantity, or final physical form.

The catalogue records a conservative youth-attendee identity artifact rather than an inferred electronic badge or a more specific physical credential unsupported by the source.

Source note: Hak4Kidz 2026 official flyer.

identity-artifact completion and delivery boundary · official schedule and organizer post-event update · event completed; delivery unconfirmed

The official schedule says attendees may grab a badge during Day 1 registration and welcome, and AfricaHackOn’s official post-event update confirms the August 27-29 summit concluded. Neither source establishes final allocation, eligibility, pickup mechanics beyond the schedule reference, completed handoff, recipient count, or post-event fulfillment.

The catalogue records a completed-event badge reference without treating it as proof that every registrant received a finished credential.

Source note: AfricaHackOn Cybersecurity Summit 2026 official schedule and organizer post-event update.

identity-artifact form and credential-technology gap · official entry-pass and FAQ wording · physical plastic and lanyard wording documented; final pass unrecovered

The organizer calls the item a lanyard and physical plastic entry pass, and the FAQ says Analog tickets redeem a plastic badge. No recovered source identifies the material, size, design, name field, barcode, QR code, RFID, NFC, serialisation, access-control technology, printing, manufacturer, quantity, final artwork, or reusable image. It is explicitly not upgraded into an electronic badge.

Readers can distinguish the documented plastic admission artifact from the event's electronic ticket forms without treating it as a PCB, smart credential, scanner workflow, or final physical specimen.

Source note: CypherCon 2026 registration and FAQ.
