Arsenal
Arsenal is a space for developers to showcase the latest open source tools and products with Black Hat attendees. Demonstrations are held in an open, conversational environment, enabling presenters to interact with attendees and provide a hands-on experience.
Participants are able to connect with others in the community and learn about new, cutting-edge research and tools to strengthen their security toolkits. Different tools are showcased across multiple days, including brand new tools, released for the first time. In 2019, Arsenal added introductory Meet Ups and Arsenal Labs to allow visitors to tinker with hardware and open-source tools in workshops led by tool developers.
The Call for Tools invites developers to submit their projects for consideration preceding each Black Hat event.
If you would like to learn more about requirements of presenters once selected, please visit the Arsenal Resource Center.
Arsenal Review Board
Black Hat partners with ToolsWatch to produce Black Hat Arsenal at annual events. ToolsWatch reviews all submissions and selects tools for presentations.
