Charitable Foundation

In 2017, Christopher Hadnagy established the Innocent Lives Foundation, with the mission to help protect and rescue children from online predators. The organization aims to investigate and thwart child exploitation, sexual abuse, trafficking, and the production of child sexual abuse material.

The foundation utilizes a range of security measures, including the expertise of information security professionals, the use of open-source intelligence (OSINT) data, and cooperation with law enforcement agencies. Hadnagy's organization has garnered support from notable individuals as well as federal law enforcement agencies in the United States, such as actor Erin Gray and the FBI.

DEF CON

In 2009, Chris Hadnagy was invited to help create a social engineering competition for DEF CON. One year later, at the 2010 DEF CON event, Hadnagy sponsored one of the very first social engineering capture the flag events. During the 2018 DEF CON event, Christopher Hadnagy revealed to a reporter from The New York Times that he once operated under the online monicker "LoganWHD".

In February 2022, Hadnagy was banned permanently from hacker conference DEF CON, where he operated a colocated event ("village"), for unspecified code of conduct violations, as announced in the organization's transparency report: "We received multiple CoC violation reports about a DEF CON Village leader, Chris Hadnagy of the SE Village. After conversations with the reporting parties and Chris, we are confident the severity of the transgressions merits a ban from DEF CON."

In Hadnagy's response on his blog, he stated he disagrees with the ban, and that he had not been informed of the details of any allegations by DEF CON representatives, and that a person affiliated with DEF CON told him the violations were not related to sexual misconduct.

In August 2022, he sued DEF CON for harm to his reputation. The lawsuit was initially dismissed in January 2023 for lack of personal jurisdiction. In August, 2023, the defamation complaint was refiled by Hadnagy and his legal team through a Nevada District Court. Court records indicate DEF CON founder Jeff Moss was served a court summons, and that the case is currently pending.

BSides Cleveland

In fall of 2021, BSides Cleveland included Hadnagy on the agenda of speakers for its June 2022 event. Leading up to the event, the organizer labeled Hadnagy's speaking slot as "special guest" instead of listing his name, so attendees and other speakers did not know he would be speaking. His talk was about cancel culture, which he had also presented at a different BSides event last year. After Hadnagy gave his presentation, several other speakers pulled out of the event.

Books

In 2018, Ben Rothke and Bill Varhol positively reviewed Social Engineering: The Science of Human Hacking. Rothke also reviewed "Unmasking the Social Engineer: The Human Element of Security. Maria Patricia Prandini from Isaca Journal Book Reviews reviewed Phishing Dark Waters: The Offensive and Defensive Sides of Malicious E-mails.
