# Event Details - **Event Name**: 2026 INTERSCT. Conference - **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 24 Jun, 2026 at 09:30 am – Wed, 24 Jun, 2026 at 07:15 pm - **Event Description**: 2026 edition of the INTERSCT. Conference on cyber security of Internet-of-Things for academia, industry, government, and civil society org.About this EventWith the Internet-of-Things (IoT) we are seamlessly connecting the cyber and the physical worlds extending the risk area to safety requiring a broader perspective on security. IoT is turning out to be one of the weakest spots in our infrastructure. With billions and in the near future potentially trillions of devices, the security risks are growing at great rates. Our economic and societal forces are creating a perfect storm, a pervasive infrastructure of trillions of IoT devices which on one hand will oversee our lives and economy, and on the other hand will be completely unmanageable from a security perspective.To compound the risk, IoT systems are often devised and engineered in places where we have no control on, and unless we want to basically surrender our digital sovereignty by only relying on foreign solutions for our national cyber security, we need to find a way to secure them regardless of provenance and built-in malicious intents.We cannot secure something we cannot manage, we need to rethink the security paradigm, delegating part of the security management to the system that needs to autonomously adapt to the changing environment, while remaining under our supervision, and rethink accordingly all our security technologies. We need to be able to design, develop and manufacture IoT systems-of-systems in a fundamentally different way enabling the overall system to become robust, resilient and trustworthy, even in the presence of individual IoT devices that are insecure or even compromised in a Zero-trust environment and providing the right ecosystem for their wide adoption within industry. We actually need to be able to design, develop and manufacture new types of IoT devices with security-by-design, security-by-default, robustness and resilience in mind; while continuously preserving all safety requirements, these devices must pro-actively manage their security, actively respond to attacks, recover from attacks, resume and restore themselves to a predefined level of operation following an attack etc.,During #INTERSCT26, the 2026 INTERSCT. Conference on cyber security of Internet-of-Things, on 24 June 2026 at Eindhoven University of Technology, we will address many of these issues with an impressive line-up of invited speakers, panelists, and moderators. There will be keynote addresses, two series of parallel sessions related to the various work packages in the NWO NWA INTERSECT project (Design, Defense, Attack, and Governance), a series of plenary sessions related to the state-of-the-art in cyber security of Internet-of-Things, as well as a networking lunch and a networking reception at the end of the event.Agenda?: 09:30 AM - 10:15 AMReception + Networking?: 10:15 AM - 10:15 AMOpeningHost: Sandro EtalleInfo: Welcome by prof. dr.

After the Mythos announcement organizations have been scrambling to understand what this means for their vulnerability management programs and how they can effectively operate at machine speed in the same way attackers can do. In this talk we will first discuss the actual impact of Mythos by stripping off all the PR buzz and then address how AI can be applied to vulnerability management programs.?: 03:15 PM - 04:00 PMInvited Talk by Gül Akcaova (SURF)Host: Gül Akcaova?: 04:00 PM - 04:30 PMBreak + Networking?: 04:30 PM - 05:15 PMInvited Talk by Erik Meijer (Leibniz Labs, US) [REMOTE]Host: Erik Meijer?: 05:15 PM - 06:00 PMInvited Talk by Joe Kiniry (Sigil Logic, US)Host: Joe Kiniry?: 06:00 PM - 06:00 PMClosingHost: Sandro Etalle?: 06:00 PM - 07:15 PMReception + NetworkingFirst series?: 09:15 AM - 10:30 AMFirst series of parallel WP sessions (WP2 and WP4)Host: Erik Poll?: 09:15 AM - 10:30 AMParallel session on WP2 ("Design")Host: Erik PollInfo: After an introduction by Erik Poll there will be presentations by Zahra Hatefi on "The Security Gap: 96% of IoT Repositories on GitHub Ignore Critical Security Concerns," Leonard Tudorache on "Towards Secure IoT Deployments: A DSL and Digital Twin-Based Emulation Platform for Security Verification", and Francesco Pizzocolo and Peter van Liesdonk on "The Product Security Innovation Radar."?: 09:15 AM - 10:30 AMParallel session on WP4 ("Attack")Host: Cristiano GiuffridaInfo: After an introduction by Herbert Bos/Cristiano Giuffrida there will be presentations by Ruida Zhou on "Structured Program Generation for CPU Fuzzing", Jai Wientjes on "Characterizing Infrastructure-as-a-Service on Cybercrime Forums", and others.Second series?: 10:30 AM - 12:00 PMSecond series of parallel WP sessions (WP3 and WP5)Host: Jerry den Hartog?: 10:45 AM - 12:00 PMParallel session of WP3 ("Defence")Host: Jerry den HartogInfo: After an introduction by Jerry den Hartog, there will be presentations by Roland van Rijswijk-Deij on "Understanding the state of IoT-specific vulnerabilities via CVE characterization with LLIoT", Iram Bibi on "IOT Attack Classification", Suzanne Wulz on "- A method for extracting knowledge from dark web messages" and others.?: 10:45 AM - 12:00 PMParallel session on WP5 ("Governance")Host: Lorenzo Dalla CorteInfo: After an introduction by Eleni Kosta/Michel van Eeten, there will be presentations by Mattis van 't Schip on "The Interdependence of Things: Digital product interdependencies and European cybersecurity law," Annebel Smit on '"Not Everything That’s Possible Has Value: The Role of Security and Privacy in the Adoption of Smart Health Technologies in Primary Care," and Pratham Ajmera & Alicja Kucharska – "Complementarity or delegation: A study of the intersection between the AI Act and the Cyber Resilience Act" followed by a discussion with the audience. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/eindhoven/2026-intersct-conference/100001989356907061 - **Event Categories**: business, health-wellness, art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - door_time: 2026-06-24T07:00:00Z - Duration: 9 hours 45 minutes - Location: Eindhoven University of Technology - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Eindhoven - **state**: NB - **country**: Netherlands - **location**: Eindhoven University of Technology - **lat**: 51.44791679999999 - **long**: 5.4861252 - **full address**: Eindhoven University of Technology, Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: 2026 INTERSCT.
