#FIRSTCTI #ThreatIntelligence #CyberSecurity #Munich #FIRSTdotOrg
Ten years ago, a group of cybersecurity professionals gathered in Munich with a simple but ambitious idea: create a trusted space where threat intelligence experts from different sectors could actually talk to each other, collaborate openly, and tackle emerging challenges together.
Sunshine, cacti, and #vulnerabilitycoordination done right ☀️🌵
#VulnCon2026 brought the global vulnerability management community to sunny Scottsdale for a week of technical sessions, industry collaboration, and conversations that carried from conference halls to poolside networking.

What happens when global incident response experts gather in the heart of Switzerland?
The recent FIRST #TechnicalColloquia, “Peak Incident Response,” hosted by CH-CERTs as part of Geneva Cyber Week, created a space for collaboration, knowledge sharing, and discussion around the evolving cybersecurity landscape.

#FIRSTdotOrg #CyberCommunity #CyberDefense #IncidentResponse #GenevaCyberWeek
This year we held our first Swiss Technical Colloquium - Peak Incident Response - as part of the Geneva Cyber Week (GCW). So, why another TC? The GCW is an annual global platform to advance international cooperation and resilience in cyberspace. This sounds a bit like it could describe just about any FIRST event. But the GCW mostly caters to policy folks, diplomats, and members of civil society, including some of our trusted partners such as DCAF and the HD Centre.
I just want to say thank you and wow for offering FREE TRAINING & a CERTIFICATE for the new CVSS v4.0. You guys should promote this more. It really opened my eyes to the awesome potential in v4's base, threat, and environmental scoring (CVSS-BTE). Hope to see more tools supporting this.
The CVSS Special Interest Group is proud to announce the official release of CVSS v4.0. This latest release marks a significant step forward with added capabilities crucial for teams with the importance of using threat intelligence and environmental metrics for accurate scoring at its core.
Critical in the interface between supplier and consumer, CVSS provides a way to capture the principal characteristics of a security vulnerability and produces a numerical score reflecting its technical severity to inform and provide guidance to businesses, service providers, government, and the public.
The numerical score can be represented as a qualitative severity rating (such as low, medium, high, and critical) to help organizations properly assess and prioritize their vulnerability management processes and prepare defenses against cyber-attacks.
Furthermore, this system allows the consumer to also assess real-time threat and impact, arming them with vital information to help to defend themselves against an attack.
The Common Vulnerability Scoring System is a published standard used by organizations worldwide, and this latest version of CVSS 4.0 seeks to provide the highest fidelity of vulnerability assessment for both industry and the public.
