5^ edition of Cybersecurity Italia event
CyberSEC2026

Cybercrime and Cyberwar: Policies, Geopolitics and Cybersecurity for a Common Defence

Following the success of the 2025 edition, which focused on generative artificial intelligence, post-quantum cryptography, espionage and geopolitics, CyberSEC is preparing to return in 2026 with an even richer programme, featuring prominent national and international speakers who will discuss current and future challenges and propose solutions to strengthen the Common Defence of allied and like-minded Countries during the two days of works.

The 5th edition will take place in a highly prestigious institutional setting – the Police Academy, in collaboration with Polizia di Stato – and will be dedicated to Cybercrime, Cyberwarfare and the State’s role in defending the digital future.

CyberSEC confirms its status not only as the leading international conference on Cybersecurity in Italy, but also as a privileged meeting place for national, European and international Institutions, Armed Forces, Industry and Academia: it brings together a multidisciplinary team with the aim of further strengthening the international cybersecurity ecosystem.
