Background

General event information

HuFiCon will be held in Cologne, in HALLE Tor 2, on November 14 and 15. The program on day 1 runs from 10am to 6.30pm, followed by an evening reception. And on day 2, the event agenda is from 10am to 3pm. On both days, the location admission starts at 9am.

The event is held in English, with no live translation. We take pride in having an international community of cyber heroes across Europe who all need to find a common way to communicate, with English being the selected language. There will be selected sessions in German.

HuFiCon is a place where the industry’s biggest issues are discussed, giving you a game plan to tackle existing and upcoming cyberthreats. By networking with peers and listening to insightful sessions, you’ll walk away immersed in the industry’s latest developments.

We encourage all cyber security professionals (from early career to industry leaders) to register and be a part of this Human Firewall Community.

During the two event days, we’ll livestream some exclusive content from the main stage. This livestream will be in English (the original session language) and will not include subtitles. After the event, we will put together some highlights of the stage program as on-demand content on our website.
