Tailored for security practitioners, this event covers both offensive and defensive disciplines, placing a significant focus on technical aspects. It provides exceptional value to cybersecurity professionals at all levels, offering an environment where practitioners can share experiences, knowledge, tools, and techniques to advance the field.
CyberThreat aims to deliver the best technical conference in Europe for cyber security practitioners. In addition to presentations from world-renowned cyber security experts and rising industry stars, CyberThreat 2025 features many hands-on opportunities for delegates in the form of CTF events, Hackable badges, team problem solving and “Hackathon” challenges against some of the latest devices and products.
The whole event was world class.
CyberThreat 2024 welcomed hundreds of cyber security practitioners from across the world. Delegates enjoyed talks, presentations and an elaborate hackable badge challenge. The unique CTF competition provided an intense and entertaining experience and the high-quality networking opportunities ensured attendees thoroughly enjoyed the event. In 2024, attendees also had the opportunity to wind down between the technical presentations at the gaming area, flight and car simulators or on the retro arcade machines.
With new and exciting plans for 2025, you don't want to miss it!
I really enjoyed the CyberThreat experience and my hats off to you and the team. You all pulled off one hell of a great conference!
