Mark your calendars!

The end of January is traditionally associated with “le FIC”, the International Forum for Cybersecurity held in Lille. With Les Assises, it is one of the biggest events in France. As such, it gathers the broader cybersecurity community, from vendors to students, and has a lively lineup of events going on under its umbrella. More on this later on, in a dedicated follow-up blog post.

As traditions go, le FIC is preceded by a conference where researchers and experts gather to share details on digital forensics and incident response (CoRI&IN). I’ve already spoken at CoRI&IN and it is always a pleasure to go back there!

For its 2020 edition, le FIC will cover three instead of two days. The very first day, 28 Jan, will see smaller, more private events taking place as well as CoRI&IN. The full scope event will officially kick off on 29 Jan.

This year, I’ll be joining again the Strategy Challenge as a member of the jury. The Challenge is co-organised by the Atlantic Council and CEIS, and centres around a global crisis situation. Students from different backgrounds compete. Moreover, I’ll be having a book signing at the Furet du Nord booth on 30 Jan between 12:30 and 1:30 PM, so do not hesitate to stop by and say ‘hi’ 🙂
