Dear Swinogers
In May, Geneva Cyber Week takes place — in Geneva, of course! The Swiss CSIRTs are organizing a two-day Technical Colloquium, "Peak Incident Response," on 5–6 May: https://www.first.org/events/colloquia/geneva2026/ https://www.first.org/events/colloquia/geneva2026/. Attendance is free and a great program is lined up.
This is a technical conference focused on large-scale infrastructure. What makes the event special is that we won't only have technical folks, but also many people from the policy space — those working for UN agencies, nonprofits, and similar organizations. Today, running and securing the internet is more than technical work. It's important that the non-technical world understands our concerns and challenges.
At the same time, this is an event that brings together the technologists — the people who actually do the hard, unglamorous work. This event is organized by volunteers; we've worked to make it free, and what we need now are participants who make it worthwhile. Talks are cheap: good questions in the Q&A and good conversations during the breaks are what make this event worth attending. I hope to see many of you there.
Feel free to reach back if you have questions or comments
Best Serge
