Badges went to the printer yesterday, T-Shirts have been printed, and lunch has been ordered. I think we are ready for next week.
I want to take this opportunity to thank our sponsors once again, because without them, we could not do this.
The event is a little over a week away, there are still a handful of ticket left so hurry up and secure your ticket.
Please note that the badges will go to the printer one week prior to the event, which means they go to the printers on Wednesday.

The schedule for BSides Reykjavik 2026 is live at cfp.bsidesreykjavik.com/2026/schedule/ Other details at bsidesreykjavik.com. Remember tickets are still available both for the workshops and the conference.
A surprisingly large percentage (like around 50%) of accepted talks aren't confirming their acceptance. Either no response or "sorry, not going to be able to travel." If you submitted a talk, please check the status at cfp.bsidesreykjavik.com/2026/me/subm...
Retiring Walmart CEO Doug McMillon made $27.5M last year, over 930 times the median Walmart worker's salary of just $29,469.
Walmart's wages are so low that its workers are among the most likely to rely on SNAP and Medicaid to get by.
It's past time Walmart paid them a living wage.
At some point it was decided that “stay-at-home mom” is less reductive than “housewife,” even though both erase the individual by describing an identity only recognized in relation to someone else, and both reinforce the capitalistic idea that existence is employment.
Please join us in welcoming and thanking Palo Alto Networks as this year's Gold sponsor. Words can not adequately express our gratitude.
They are clearly very invested in supporting the Icelandic cybersecurity community and want to ensure it is informed and well educated.
We are just waiting for speakers to confirm their acceptance before we release the schedule for our 2026 conference. So if you submitted a talk, please check your inbox and get back to us ASAP. If you haven't heard from us one way or another, you are either an alternative or the email got lost.

As you are snapping up tickets to the conference like hotcakes, don't forget about the workshop the day before. The fabulous Susanne (Zuzana) BITTER and Chris Clarkson lead you through Breaking the Chain: Threat Modelling Supply Chain Risks and Vulnerabilities.
In less than 24 hours, we have sold 27% of available tickets. If this pace keeps up, we'll sell out in no time. So make sure you get your tickets early. This could be the first year we sell out. If that happens, we'll try to negotiate with the venue to increase the number of available seats
Please join us in thanking Syndis for their contribution to our 2026 conference as a silver sponsor. It is clear that they care about the Cybersecurity community and want to enable knowledge sharing within it.
Be like Syndis and sponsor us to make this year's conference the best one yet.
In response to world events these days I like to quote a song from Diane Warwick, what the world needs now is love sweet love. This was true many decades ago when Diane made this song and it's even truer today.
Have you put in your CFP to our 2026 conference? Only couple of weeks left cfp.bsidesreykjavik.com/2026/cfp
Regardless, you should not be disrespectful or hateful toward them; that is what they are after. They are trying to spread hate, so don't give them the satisfaction of hating them.
Love your fellow human; that is the way to go.
Just because someone is being hateful in their action and speech doesn't mean that you should be showing them hate. I understand it can be hard to show someone like that love, in which case you should at least be civil towards them, hopefully showing them some level of respect.
It doesn't matter if it is brotherly love, neighborly love, platonic love, or romantic love. All love is good; there is no bad love. The type of love is totally up to you, just love your neighbor.
Considering the news as of late and all the discussions on social media surrounding that, I think it is a good time to remind everyone that hate is not the answer to anything. We need more love and respect in the world.
If you want to do something special, or commemorate one of those days, give me the gift of time, not stuff. An evening out, or even an evening in, means a great deal more to me than something you can buy at a store. Companionship is the greatest gift of all. Time is the most precious commodity.
There are a lot of reasons why I'm weird/unusual. One is that I don't like to receive gifts for Christmas, birthdays, Valentine's Day, etc. They feel so obligated. If you want to give me a gift, it should be for a weird reason, like because it's Tuesday the 13th, or humpday.
