Despite being a virtual event, the DeSECSys workshop was quite a success. Attendees expressed the same sentiment!

"Thanks to the DeSECSys workshop we had the chance to present and communicate our research goals and ideas to a group of very experienced and skilled people…”

“The great talks gave us the motivation to focus on new and innovative ideas.”

“To everyone’s benefit, the workshop consisted of researchers that are actively involved with cybersecurity education/training and ethical hacking as well as researchers that are interested in security testing overall.”
