About the Conference Call for Speakers

The 39th annual FIRST conference will be held June 13-18, 2027, at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center in Bangkok, Thailand.

FIRST brings together security and incident response professionals from multiple career stages and from public, private, and education sectors around the world.

Participants exchange ideas, datasets, and new techniques, debate key issues, strengthen trust networks, and collaborate on areas of mutual interest.

We are seeking speakers to present their latest insights on incident response and security operations, advancing our collective ability to prevent and respond to computer security incidents.

Check back for the FULL CFS on October 30th!
