The next security thing starts here!

We are looking for speakers who can share real-world security knowledge, technical research, lessons learned, tools, experiments, failures, and ideas that move the community forward.

Whether you are an experienced security researcher, a practitioner working on interesting problems, a student with a cool project, or someone who has learned something the hard way, we want to hear from you.

We are open to different formats:

• Lightning Talk: 10–15 minutes
• Technical Talk: 30–45 minutes
• Deep Dive: 45–60 minutes
• Hands-on Workshop: 1–3 hours
• Panel / Roundtable: 45–60 minutes

Speakers should:

• Avoid exposing sensitive, confidential, or personally identifiable information.
• Clearly distinguish controlled demonstrations from real-world exploitation.
• Avoid sharing credentials, secrets, access tokens, or other sensitive material.
• Clearly identify fictional, simulated, or sanitized examples.
