Open forums it-sa Expo&Congress 2022
In 2022, it-sa Expo&Congress was once again an important trend barometer and provided important industry insights with a comprehensive supporting programme. The spectrum ranges from expert lectures on current security topics from the fields of technology and management, to product-independent contributions in the "it-sa insights" series of topics, to an accompanying congress programme. You can look forward to top-class lectures and a diverse exchange at the highest professional level in the Knowledge Forums.
Open lecture stages
On three days of the exhibition, an attractive non-stop programme will take place in the specialist forums at it-sa. Exhibitors and partner associations of it-sa will show where the journey in IT security is heading in the specialist lectures, study analyses and discussions. In the it-sa insights, experts will provide product-neutral, up-to-date insights into industries, trends, legal issues and special topics. With Startups@it-sa, it-sa also offers young international IT security companies a platform to present themselves to trade visitors in the forums.Would you like to prepare yourself optimally for the trade fair?

Special Keynote
On the last day of the exhibition at about 12:00 noon, visitors to it-sa Expo&Congress and digital participants can traditionally expect a special highlight of our lecture programme in the form of the Special Keynote. Personalities such as Edward Snowden, IT security expert Paula Januszkiewicz and Maximilian Schrems have already used the last day of the trade fair to take stock of data protection and IT security.
2022, Jaya Baloo, Chief Information Security Officer at AVAST, will deliver a keynote address on Our secure quantum future: how the next quantum (r)evolution will impact cybersecurity and mitigations.
Live on site, the Special Keynote will be freely accessible to visitors and representatives of exhibiting companies in the International Forum. In addition, the English-language presentation will be streamed via the it-sa 365 platform.
