Starting in 2016, WISP and Lockpick Extreme have put on a yearly lockpicking workshop in San Francisco, hoping to bring our community together through the love of locks. After a hiatus due to the pandemic WISP and Lockpick Extreme are happy to continue this tradition! As part of WISP’s DEF CON Prep Series, we are here to give you the theory and hands-on experience of lockpicking in a live, interactive, workshop.

Don’t have any equipment? We have you covered! If you’ve ever attended one of our events in the past, you’ll know that there is never a need to come with any tools or locks, we always provide you with equipment to use for the workshop.

Our workshop requires no previous experience in lockpicking and a majority of participants leave being able to open the equivalent of a standard front door house lock.

This event is being hosted off-site from the conference center at Alix Partners.

If you have already registered for our virtual lockpicking event on this day, please give others the opportunity to attend this in-person event.

Lockpick Extreme Instructors:

• Christine Bachman

• Bob Hermes

• Ray Gin
