August 1, 2025 – Finite State is excited to return to DEF CON 33 as a proud sponsor of the AppSec Village, taking place August 7–10 in Las Vegas. As one of the world’s most iconic hacker conferences, DEF CON is where cutting-edge research, offensive tactics, and security innovation collide—and we’re here for all of it.
Meet Us in the AppSec Village
This year, we’re turning up the voltage on AppSec with IoT Pentest Blitz—a high-stakes, multiplayer card game where players build and mitigate an exploit chain to outwit opponents. It’s fast, fun, and fiercely competitive.

Friday, August 8 | 11:00 AM–3:00 PM
Saturday, August 9 | 1:00 PM–5:00 PM
Bragging rights—and maybe even some exclusive swag—await those who dominate the exploit chain.
