BSidesCharm is a regional Security B-Sides held in the Baltimore region of Maryland. It operates under the umbrella principles of Security B-Sides as a larger community project within information security. The goal of BSides is to offer small, intimate events where all participants can engage each other to help develop connections, friendships, and network with different industry professionals.

We recognize the value in engaging a smaller audience and being the big fish in a small pond. Every organization will have different goals and priorities which is why we offer different levels of participation for every individual, group, or organization. We specifically designed several different options for any sized organization to participate and support this event.
