ShareWithUs: TyphoonCon Online Sharing by Oppa Fatah
Fatah, who recently returned home from Korea, did a sharing session with our crews and alumni on his experience attending TyphoonCon, which was held in Seoul from June 12 to 16, 2023. During the event, he acquired new technical skills and was able to deepen his knowledge, gaining an overview of the current cybersecurity trends worldwide. While making new friends and acquaintances with the attendees and speakers, he was also exposed to the culture and education for offensive security of BoB (Best of Best), a cybersecurity community there. Apart from that, he got the chance to hang out and play tourists together with GCC 2023 Korea students, whom he made friends with during GCC in Singapore earlier this year!
