About the Network Event

Directly after the Human Factor in Cybercrime Conference (HFC), the Cyberagentur is hosting the first Network { CYBER : Crime || Security || Society } event on the thematic focus 'Cyber-resilient society' in Halle (Saale) on 12 and 13 September 2023. On 12 September, the event will take place in the town hall of the city of Halle (Saale) and on 13 September in the auditorium of the Lion Building of the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg. The event is intended to support community-building in the field of the 'Cyber-resilient society'. Our goal is to connect various academic disciplines related to cyber security that address questions surrounding the security implications of the digital transformation of our society. The event will foster exchange and debate within an internationally connected community of researchers and practitioners.

The Network { CYBER : Crime || Security || Society } will start on the afternoon of 12 September with the Handshake Event to give a broader professional audience the chance to network and exchange ideas - also with the HFC participants. In addition, this format is intended to serve the promotion of young researchers and networking between academia and representatives of law enforcement agencies.

Invited national and international researchers as well as representatives of law enforcement agencies will present and discuss the Breaking News: Cybercrime and Cyberresilient Society - How to put knowledge into action? Each panel discussion will start with "Provocative Thoughts" by the speakers, which will then lead into a 45-minute discussion round.

On both 12 and 13 September, the official part of the conference will be followed by a get-together to promote informal exchange.
Participation in the network event { CYBER : Crime || Security || Society } is free of charge. As the number of participants is also limited here, registration is requested by 31 August 2023 at the latest.
