South-1337 Militia

South-1337 Militia, is a hacker community formed in Dasmarinas City. Created to form a bond of trust amongst the computer enthusiasts, hacker/cracker, students with a general interests in Information Security. The South-1337 Militia(also known as SOUTH's ELITES) is dedicated to give information and gather more interests in the field of Information Security. The group does not choose who must join and must not join, this is for everyone interested and dedicated to improve Philippines InfoSec Industry/Community.Anything with the 'hacker' label on it tends attract only one kind of person. This meeting is designed to attract not only hackers but members of the InfoSec community and people who want to learn more about InfoSec but do not consider themselves hackers. The purpose here is to interact with people who may have different backgrounds but share the same passion for technology. Many security people feel that hackers are nothing but trouble and many hackers feel that security people are clueless. Those generalizations are often made in error and we'd like to bring all techno-dweebs back under a single umbrella.
