C:\MAE-EAST> WHOAMI

Welcome to the node.

MAE-East Hackers is a Mid-Atlantic community for people who build, break, study, defend, reverse, automate, and occasionally argue about computers over drinks.

No vendor theater. No résumé peacocking. Just curious people, technical conversations, and the belief that the best security communities are built by sharing what we know.

01 ABOUT THE GROUP

>> What this is

A local hacker community centered on practical cybersecurity, AI, infrastructure, hardware, reverse engineering, defense, offensive research, and the strange corners where those disciplines collide.

>> Who belongs here

Red teamers, blue teamers, builders, defenders, researchers, operators, students, tinkerers, radio nerds, AI experimenters, sysadmins, engineers, and the terminally curious.
