BruCON is organized as a non-profit event by volunteers. A group of security enthusiasts decided that it was time in Belgium to have its own security conference. A lot of countries around the world already had these kind of conferences to discuss and present research on computer security and related subject matters. This group of volunteers wanted Belgium not to be the last to have a similar conference.
