Round two in Buenos Aires
Two years after our first Live Hacking Event together, Banco Galicia, Bug Bounty Argentina and YesWeHack are joining forces once more at Ekoparty, bringing Argentina’s hacker community together for another intensive live bug-hunting experience.
The hunt kicks off on Wednesday 7 October at 1:00 PM and runs until Friday 9 October at 10:00 AM, right in the middle of Ekoparty 2026. Once again, the Live Hacking Event will be accessible to all Ekoparty 2026 participants.
Ready for round two?
Back where it started
In 2024, Banco Galicia and YesWeHack teamed up at Ekoparty for our first-ever Live Hacking Event in Latin America.
Over two days, ethical hackers put Banco Galicia assets to the test, competing for points, leaderboard positions and rewards while working alongside fellow researchers and security teams in Buenos Aires.
But the value of a live hacking event goes beyond the vulnerabilities discovered.
It is also an opportunity to bring together the people on both sides of a Bug Bounty Program: the hackers uncovering vulnerabilities, the security teams working to remediate them and the people helping to make that collaboration happen.
And after the energy we saw from the Latin American hacking community in 2024, there was only one thing to do: come back for another round.
Argentina's hackers: this one's for you!
Ekoparty has long been one of the key meeting points for the Latin American hacker community, and 2026 promises to be no exception. If you’re planning to be there, our Live Hacking Event gives you another reason to get your laptop out!
