Alternatively, you can also sponsor a half or full-day workshop a day before CSSA 2026. Suggested workshops should be suitable for the cybersecurity and information security community. If you're interested, please provide a proposal containing the following information:

  • workshop overview
  • requirements (venue type, equipment needed, etc.)
  • targeted audience
    • minimum and maximum number of participants
  • length of time required

The organising committee will then review your proposal.
