UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE, THIS MEETING WILL BE HELD ONLINE WITH DISCORD: https://discord.gg/wmFHB7y

Open to anyone in the area who is interested in developing video games. In order to have a little structure, we'll try to do a couple things each week:

Introduce new members. What have you worked on, game related or not? What do you want to work on next?

Discuss this week's conversation starter. Some article, video or game that we can dig into a little.

Members can present any games they're working on, for feedback or just to brag.

Of course, it's all very informal. The main goal is interesting conversation(s) about our passion.

Looking forward to it!

Every Thursday, the members of Hammerspace gather to socialize, network, and meet new members of the space. We welcome the community at large to come down during this time to explore the workshop, check out all of the tools, fabrication equipment and work space made available to HammerSpace members, and ask questions of our community of Hammerspace users.

There is plenty of off-street parking, a kids playroom available for tiny makers, and the evening is always the origin point of new and amazing creative ideas.

Tours are led every 30 minutes for those curious about the tools and capabilities of the facility and staff. This is a free event, open to the public.

In our September Heartland webinar, we'll discuss how ransomware loitering presents an opportunity for network detection.

The recent surge of ransomware attacks has highlighted a shift in tactics employed by threat actors looking to extort organizations. Their methodology has changed from a quick, opportunistic attack to a prolonged, targeted approach. This shift in methodology presents threat groups with the opportunity to encrypt more critical data, but also presents security teams with the opportunity to detect activity before data is encrypted. In this talk we'll explore how security analysts use network detection and response capabilities to discover malicious activity between initial compromise and encryption.

Agenda
3:00pm - 3:05pm Welcome and Opening Remarks
3:05pm - 3:35pm Thought Leadership Spotlight
3:35pm - 3:50pm Audience Q&A
