Last Sunday, two of us went on a journey to Brussels, to attend an aircrack-ng workshop organised by its main author Thomas d’Otreppe. Driving through Brussels was quite an adventure, but we got rewarded with a nice parking lot nearby okno, were the workshop took place. Across our parking lot, we also found some inspiration for the next RedTeam HQ. ;-)

Luckily, we also avoided all traffic jams on our way to Brussels, so we had some time to spend. First we explored the way to the workshop location, which was easy to find. Then we spent some time sight-seeing and found a very nice sculpture:

On our way to get some fast food, we also stumbled upon the home of big brother:

Finally the workshop itself was much fun. As we found out, it was the initial meeting of the Brussels hackerspace community. There will be more events every second Sunday of the week if I remember correctly. The next meeting will be about building wireless antennas. It will also be the topic of a workshop at the 25C3 in Berlin at the end of the year, where we will meet again. Thomas also gave an introductive talk about aircrack-ng and its current development, which was recorded and will be available on the aircrack-ng homepage.

Thank you Thomas for the workshop and the tons of potatoe crisps and also everyone else for this nice sunday afternoon.
