This will happen during the Geneva Cyber week, and we hope to talk to a lot of policy folks
CFP is open, please spread the word: The event is free and we welcome diverse submissions and participation.
I'm involved in that. Make me sleep well again by submitting talks and registering. It's gonna be a cool event.
During Geneva Cyber Week, a FIRST Technical Colloquium titled Peak Incident Response will take place from 5–6 May 2026.
The event will focus on security and incident response for large-scale infrastructures and services, as well as the related policy implications.
We are currently seeking presentations on topics such as:
Operating large-scale services (e.g., DNS, BGP, NTP)
Defending against large-scale DDoS attacks
Coordinating incidents involving multiple stakeholders
Protecting shared and critical infrastructures
We warmly invite security professionals, incident responders, and policy makers with an interest in resilient digital infrastructure to join the discussions and share their perspectives.
More information about the event is available here: https://www.first.org/events/colloquia/geneva2026/
We have a preliminary program: https://www.first.org/events/colloquia/geneva2026/program
Join us for free in Geneva to talk about DNS, FOSS, large infrastructures and Incident response.
