18th qSkills™ Security Summit
Act instead of hesitating!

Geopolitical tensions, cyber warfare, fake news, AI, and quantum computing.
The world is changing radically – and so is the threat landscape for your company. Digital security is no longer just an IT issue – the complex security chain must be viewed holistically.
But how can companies find orientation in this complex and dynamic world? The 18th qSkills™ Security Summit on October 6, 2025 in Nuremberg provides answers.
The 1-day conference is aimed at CISOs, CIOs, IT security officers (ISOs), IT managers, and other decision-makers in the IT security industry. Organized by qSkills™, a leading provider of IT expert training, the focus is on peer-to-peer exchange and knowledge transfer – free from sponsors or sales areas. The goal is to provide practical insights, tangible strategies, and clear guidance for tomorrow's digital security.
Top speakers will illuminate the key points of modern security strategies.
Highlights from the summit program include:
Prof. em. Dr. Günther Schmid, Freelancer: "Twilight for Europe: The struggle for a new geopolitical power and influence distribution and the consequences for companies and markets."
Lars Kukuk, Head of Department and CISO, Federal Employment Agency: "The BA's security strategy: How information security becomes an innovation driver."
Hermann Huber, Manager Information Security CISO, Hubert Burda Media: "In the age of cyber warfare and fake news – how AI, robotics, quantum computers, and data sovereignty are revolutionizing the media world."
