BSides events are community-driven cybersecurity conferences designed to provide an open platform for information sharing, learning, and networking. Originating as an alternative to large commercial conferences, BSides events focus on fostering meaningful connections and showcasing innovative ideas in an inclusive and engaging environment.

BSides Riga, launching in 2026, joins this global movement as a space where professionals, enthusiasts, and newcomers can come together to explore the evolving challenges and opportunities in cybersecurity.

Our mission is to bring the BSides spirit to Riga by creating a conference where discussions go beyond the surface, diving into technical, creative, and theoretical topics.

Whether you’re a seasoned professional, a student just starting your journey, or someone curious about cybersecurity, BSides Riga is here for you. We aim to build not just an event, but a vibrant local community that inspires collaboration and innovation year after year.

Join us as we embark on this exciting new chapter. Together, we’ll shape the future of cybersecurity in Riga and beyond.
