Call For Papers (CFP)

This is a Call for Everything! Talks, Presentations, Trainings, Workshops, and Community events. If you have an idea for security-related content, we want to hear it!

Talks at BSides typically cover a broad range or experience levels and topics, everything from privacy to cloud security to hardware security and everything in between. Check out BSidesSLC's YouTube channel to see talks from previous years.

Talks and workshops will take place on Friday, September 18th, 2026.
