BSides Kristiansand

Call for Artwork!

We are thrilled to announce that BSides Kristiansand 2025 will take place on Friday, 6 June 2025, at the Noroff University College Kristiansand Campus. Mark your calendars for a day of innovation, learning, and connection in the heart of Kristiansand.

BSides (Security B-Sides) is a series of community-driven cybersecurity conferences held globally. It provides a platform for security professionals, researchers, and enthusiasts to share ideas, network, and discuss innovative approaches to information security. Unlike larger, commercial conferences, BSides fosters a collaborative and inclusive environment, encouraging open participation and grassroots knowledge sharing.
