Last June 22nd, the third edition of the security conference “you sh0t the sheriff” (also known as YSTS) happened in São Paulo, Brazil.

Born in 2007, YSTS brought a new format to the security conferences in Brazil, having a balanced mix of technical and not-so-technical presentations, and has established its place in the calendar of the security conferences world-wide.

In 2008, YSTS raised about USD 400 for HFC, and, following the growth and success of the conference, this year we’re pleased to announce that we raised a little over US 1,000 for HFC via auctioning some gadgets purchased by the YSTS organization, as well as items donated by some of the attendees and sponsors. Some of the top items auctioned this year were two subscriptions of Microsoft’s MSDN, gently donated by Microsoft’s MSRC, as well as other items like books and some miscellaneous swag. YSTS and HFC would like to thank all that have reached-out and helped the cause. We’re looking forward to do better in the next edition.
