The conference schedule for Swiss Cyber Storm 2026 is now available online

Taking place on 20 October at the Kursaal Bern, Swiss Cyber Storm 2026 will explore the theme of 'Shadow IT', focusing on how employees circumvent corporate policies to get things done and the implications for security and compliance. Artificial intelligence, not just in the form of Shadow AI, will also be a key focus alongside other current topics.

This year's conference schedule is now available. Our program chair and Master of Programming™, Christian Folini, has been working hard over the past few months to bring you an exciting program. You can find the full schedule here.

Let us give you a few names from the program, just to whet your appetite: Sébastien Schnyder from Google AI, Ivano Somaini on OSINT, Fullhunt.io founder Mazin Ahmed, and our opening keynote speaker Lieutenant General (Ret.) Karen H. Gibson. In the next few issues of this newsletter, up to the conference, we will introduce some of the new speakers in detail.

Further information on the conference is available on our website.
