February 2026 Event: Screening of I Am Machine
Join the Silicon Valley ISSA community, in collaboration with the Pacific Hackers Association, for a special screening of I Am Machine, a thought-provoking documentary that explores the intersection of human identity, technology, and cybersecurity. The film follows the life and work of Len Noe, a white hat hacker and transhuman who has embedded multiple bio implants into his body.
I Am Machine examines what happens when technology moves from something we use to something we become. Through Len’s personal story, the film raises timely questions around ethics, human enhancement, privacy, and security in a future where humans and machines increasingly merge.
The documentary premiered in 2025 at cybersecurity focused events including DEF CON related gatherings and Hacker Halted, and has since been featured in international documentary showcases.
