The image shows the DeepSec logo upside down indicating a dangerous situation (as with flags hoisted upside down).We have silent running since December. The reasons were behind-the-scenes updates, post-processing the past DeepSec conference, recharging our batteries, and adapting to the new situation in IT security influenced by geopolitics. Following the news since 20 January took a lot of head-shaking and wondering what the rest of 2025 will look like. This is where you come in. We want to see and hear you on stage at DeepSec and possibly DeepINTEL 2025. The Call for Papers is now open.

The motto for DeepSec this year is “forbidden lore”. It is a reference to forbidden knowledge, the debate about full disclosure, and hard facts that are now declared illegal by authoritarian governments. DeepSec has always followed a scientific approach for discussing and questioning IT security. One of our past conferences even had the motto “Science first!”. We want to take this a step further. We need to publish and analyze security defects openly. Society, businesses, and governments rely on information technology. Any threat to IT can have dire consequences. So we are interested in hearing about your forbidden lore. Submit your content and present it on stage here in Vienna, Austria.

Our motto also implies hot topics such as the never-ending “success stories” of Large Language Models (LLMs), disinformation warfare, mind manipulation (as discussed by Randahl Fink in his keynote for DeepSec 2024), secure coding/design, and the security of platforms we all rely on.

We are especially interested in hearing about your two-day trainings. We will publish the training schedule earlier, starting in April. So submit your courses as soon as possible. The call for papers runs until 31 July 2025.

See you in Vienna!
