Saturday January 21st is your DC404 hybrid meeting
A number of dc404 members met in person at Manual’s Tavern for the March 19, 2022 dc404 meeting.
To accommodate members who wish to meet both in person and virtually, we will host hybrid meetings starting with the Saturday May 21, 2022 dc404 meeting.
If you attend in person please respect other members in their choice of masking or not.
The meeting speaker will be streamed to both the in person and online meetings.
We are experimenting with how to run a hybrid meeting so like all hacking we expect issues but like hacking, we will improvise, adapt, and overcome.
NOTICE: The in person meeting will be back in our regular space, the Manuel’s Tavern First Level Room.
The in person meeting space will open at 13:00 on Saturday so that people will have time to connect and work out any technical issues.
The meeting will start at 14:00.

Supply Chain Attacks in the Wild
A presentation given to a group of developers in December 2022 to educate them on what type of attacks are occurring in public repositories. We will define Supply Chain Attacks in this context, look at actual attacks that have occurred recently and some that are ongoing, and review ways to ensure that you stay safe while using public repos like Pypi, NPM, and others.
