Conferences

Hackfest is the largest hacking event in Canada and brings together more than 900 computer security enthusiasts. The event takes place over two days of technical conferences about security and hacking and is preceded by 3 days of training.
Both nights let participants measure their security and hacking skills in a unique CTF (Capture The Flag). The whole evening is accompanied by a lockpicking contest, DJ atmosphere, workshops, evening conferences, live podcast recording and more.

Cybersecurity ceased to be a distant technical problem, important only for IT departments, and it became an integral part of companies’ strategies and their continuity – “to be or not to be”. We realized that cyber security would be one of the key challenges for the next decades. The total losses of the public and private sector in the world resulting from cybercrime are estimated at 1% of global GDP. Analysts predict that by 2021, these losses will amount to more than USD 6 trillion annually. Tasks are not facilitated by the low supply of cyber security specialists on the labor market.
All this creates a huge demand for comprehensive cybersecurity products and services. There was a need to create a platform for companies and startups, offering products and services of the cyber sector, as well as for small and large companies from various industries, which more than ever need effective protection against a constantly evolving threat. We have created CYBERSEC EXPO for all of them!
CYBERSEC EXPO 2019 is an international two-day trade fair of cybersecurity products and services that gather suppliers, users and cyber-security enthusiasts from around the world.

The 2018 Congress is your opportunity to explore leading issues at the crossroads of privacy, access, security, law, data governance. The National Privacy and Data Governance Congress brings together professionals from industry, government and academia who are concerned about privacy, access, security, compliance and data governance within their organizations. Sessions are longer than usual, so that there is plenty of time for delegates to pose questions, get unscripted answers, and engage in meaningful conversations with presenters, colleagues, and decision makers. For that to be possible, attendance is strictly limited and registration is on a first come, first served basis.
