Dear Sir,
The year 2022, scarred by brutal and unprecedented aggression on Ukraine, has shown us the power of unity
and the need for increased resilience. Current events – also taking place in cyberspace – will shape the next
months, years and decades to come.
As we look into the future, we draw valuable lessons from the past. We are delighted to invite you to CYBERSEC
FORUM/EXPO which will take place on 21-22 June 2023 in Katowice, Poland.
We would be honoured if you agreed to share your insights by joining a panel entitled “RECLAIMING
SOVEREIGNTY - EUROPEAN UNION DIGITAL ID INDUSTRIAL POLICY”.
Building up on the existing cross-border legal framework for trusted digital identities – known as eIDAS
Regulation, the European Commission proposed a framework for European Digital Identity which will be
available to all EU citizens, residents, and businesses operating in the EU. The goal is to create a secure, reliable
and interconnected system, which will allow for greater integration of services. However, there is still lack of
international dimension on digital identity strategy, and little to no attention is given to foreign investments in
this area, despite many digital ID systems in use coming from private non-EU actors. Given that identity
certification is the subject of sovereignty and autonomy of states, bearing strategic consequences, how should
the industrial policy of the EU be shaped?
The 17th edition of CYBERSEC will be guided by the leitmotif PARTNERSHIPS FOR CYBER RESILIENCE. We take
another step forward in our mission to foster multistakeholder, international and multisectoral cooperation, to
bring the global cybersecurity community together, and finally turn words into actions.
That is why in addition to the FORUM and EXPO Stages we are introducing the INNOVATION Stage dedicated to
new and promising ideas by up-and-coming thinkers and engineers. To work towards inclusivity, we are also
organizing special formats – CYBERSEC Women, CYBERSEC Seniors, CYBERSEC Disinfo Day, and side events, like
Capture the Flag and Admin Days.
We sincerely hope that you will join us on 21-22 June in Katowice, to increase our shared cyber resilience.
Yours sincerely,
