SharkBytes
SharkBytes consist of “little crunchy bits of wisdom”. Like the immensely popular TED talks, Shark Bytes aim to inform, inspire, surprise, and delight as presenters share their personal perspective on a topic in under 5 minutes.
A Word of Thanks

We’d like to express our immense gratitude to the developers, keynote speakers, presenters, attendees, sponsors, events staff, Dominican University of California summer conference staff, and volunteers who generously collaborated to coordinate the 7th annual Wireshark community event.
