2025 TF-CSIRT Meeting & FIRST Regional Symposium Europe | #FIRSTEU25
Monte Carlo, Monaco. January 14–16, 2025
Co-organized by TF-CSIRT & Hosted by CERT Monaco
The 2025 TF-CSIRT Meeting & FIRST Regional Symposium Europe will be held January 14–16, 2025.
The Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams, Inc. (“FIRST”) conducts themed regional symposia throughout the year and around the world. The format is formal and includes management, technical, and hands-on components. Symposia typically provide 1-2 full-days of plenary sessions along with a full-day of hands-on training. Plenary content focuses on informal discussions and presentations that are of high interest to FIRST members in those specific regions. They are more sensitive in nature and related to the day-to-day work of participants. Training is interactive and taught by leading security experts in small workgroup settings.
This meeting is open to FIRST members and non-members of the incident response community. Please see the program agenda for all open content. Closed meetings are by invitation only and not open to general attendance.
The Call for Speakers & Trainings, registration information, and the official hotel booking link will be available September 2024.
