Who we are

DC4131 is a local DEFCON Group and is organized as an association according to Swiss law. We are well-known for the Area41 conference (formerly hashdays) and regular member-events such as our Beer on Tuesday. DC4131 strives to support and foster the local hacker community.

The DEFCON Switzerland association was founded in 2008. It is a non-profit association run by enthusiasts in their spare time with the aim to give experts and professionals a platform to exchange knowledge in the information security community. To this end, the association organizes various events and gatherings across Switzerland that are open to everyone or for our members only. Many well-known security experts based in Switzerland are members of DEFCON Switzerland.

If you ask yourself, what DC4131 means: DC stands for DefCon, 41 is the area code for Switzerland and 31 is the area code for Berne, the capital of Switzerland.
