The first European edition of Suits and Spooks, the cyber security conference that brings together decision makers and influential thought leaders in the industry, will be held in London on September 12.

"SNS provides a first-class forum to openly (and professionally) debate cyber security policy issues. Everyone benefits from hearing all sides of the issues and, correspondingly, leave with new perspectives.” - Robert Bigman, former CISO, Central Intelligence Agency

 “One of those rare conferences where even the speakers learn something new.” - Stewart A. Baker, former General Counsel, National Security Agency; former Ass’t Secretary for Policy, Department of Homeland Security

 “Suits and Spooks is an intimate gathering of like minded security professionals focused on discussing timely and relevant topics, not Marketing fluff. The speakers were engaging and brought real world experience to the table.” - George Kurtz, CEO/President and Co-founder, CrowdStrike



Former intelligence officials, corporate executives and information security practitioners from the United States and Europe will gather at the Blue Fin building in the neighborhood of Southwark for a limited attendance, single-track event focusing on some of the hottest cybersecurity and intelligence related topics.

A total of 13 presentations and two panels have been announced for Suits and Spooks London, which similar to previous editions, is closed to the press and held under the Chatham House Rule. The list of topics includes advanced persistent threats (APTs), the challenges faced by law enforcement, threat research, cyber warfare operations, and the criminal underground
