| Title | People's Choice Cyber Talk - Day 1 |
| Abstract | Because we received so many cyber submissions this year (almost 100), and we can't possibly fit them all in, we have decided to allow those who subbed a second chance to present. The Crue will install a flip-chart in the foyer and those who wish to throw their hat in the ring can put their talk title up and be voted upon by the community. The two contenders with the most likes/favs/hearts/thumbs-up will be given 15-30 minutes on stage during the afternoon break (15:45-16:15 on Thursday and 15:30-16:00 on Friday). If you want to give it a shot we ask that you be available at the allotted times with your slide deck ready. |

| Title | Te Kuiti Warrior 7 |
| Abstract | For the 7th year running, Lateral Security and DRoc proudly present the Kiwi Warrior Challenge.
This is a lockpicking competition to be run on Thursday night. Contestants will be handcuffed in a 'cell' and be required to circumvent multiple locks in order to gain their freedom. Each task will have 3 levels of difficulty so the event will be newbie-friendly. The entire run is timed and points are awarded for each completed task. This event is inspired by the original Gringo Warrior Challenge and will follow similar rules as found here. For full details, check out the Te Kuiti Warrior 7 page here |
