CSAF Community Days & Workshops 2025 - Experience and shape vulnerability management live!
Events 2025

Vulnerabilities in hardware and software are part of the digital everyday life - what matters is how quickly and systematically companies and authorities react. Once systems reach a certain level of complexity, errors can no longer be avoided - and many of these errors can become security vulnerabilities that attackers exploit. The international standard CSAF (Common Security Advisory Framework) provides a solution: an open format for the automated, machine-readable exchange of security advisories.
CSAF Community Days
From November 13 to 14, 2025, experts in IT security, development, and industry will meet at the CSAF Community Days at the Südwestpark Forum in Nuremberg. In collaboration with OASIS Open and qSkills™, the event focuses on automated vulnerability management with high-profile presentations, practical insights, and international community exchange.
