BSides history
The BSides conference series sprang into existence due to the overwhelming number of submissions to the Black Hat USA 2009 event. There was simply no way to fit all of the quality presentations into the show — but rather than drop the rejected ideas, the founders of BSides decided to host them in an informal event alongside Black Hat USA.
