Eidsiva Digital, Netsecurity, Norwegian Cybersecurity Cluster and the Norwegian Security Association invite you to an informal get-together with security talk, mingling and a glass of something good before the Security Festival dinner. A perfect opportunity to meet new people and expand your network with other security enthusiasts.
At the same time, together with Johan Høstmælingen, we take a deep dive into one of Norway's most famous unsolved mysteries. What happens when you start looking for connections and what is not obvious? We explore how traces, patterns and signals can hide right in front of us. Just like in security work.

Would you also like to have a side event?
Would you like to create a festival feel by organizing a side event? We understand that many people would like to contribute by doing something extra for the participants, and we appreciate this. Usually, this is reserved for our partners and paying sponsors/exhibitors, but if you would like to contribute, there are a few things we ask you to take into account to ensure a good experience for everyone:
Respect for the Program and Sponsors/Exhibitors
Side events should be held outside the regular program, out of respect for the organizer and paying sponsors and exhibitors. It is important that side events take place in “free time” and do not clash with the official activities.
Timings for Side events
Side events can take place at the following times:
Monday 24/8: Between 16:00 and 19:00, and after 21:00
Tuesday 25/8: Between 16:15 and 19:00
There is also the possibility of arranging side events on the morning before the academic program, until 9 a.m. every day. See here for the full festival program.
Information, communication and social media
We want to be informed about page events before they are published on social media. This helps us coordinate and ensure that everything goes smoothly for all parties. For questions, please contact us: si ****************** @ ****** um.no
We greatly appreciate your understanding and cooperation, in this way we create an unforgettable festival experience for everyone.
