Friends of Carmasec
Cyber Circle Meetup
Starting in 2026, the “Cyber Circle Meetup” brought together experts and enthusiasts from the field of IT security once a quarter at Mediapark in Cologne to discuss the latest developments and topics and learn from one another. The event focused on topics that currently affect both the private and public sectors equally: the practice of security audits, the use of AI in management, the technical implementation of the CRA, and the question of what opportunities AI already offers attackers today. Four short technical presentations kicked off the event.
Venue
The FOC (Friends of Carmasec) event took place on September 24 at Carmasec GmbH & Co. KG, located at Startplatz in Cologne’s Mediapark.
Intro
Jan Sudmeyer and Timm Börgers, both Managing Partners of Carmasec, opened the event and welcomed the approximately two dozen attendees and speakers that evening.
