Layer 8 Conference 2021

Layer 8 Conference is the first conference to be solely focused on social engineering and intelligence gathering. Layer 8 Conference is an official 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

Why Layer 8?

It comes from the OSI Model of networking. The OSI Model has 7 layers from the physical at layer 1, to the application at layer 7. Beyond this, the next layer of interaction is with the human. Since social engineering and OSINT is about the human, this would be Layer 8!
