Cybersec Netherlands 2025: From Human Firewall to AI Defense
On 10–11 September 2025, Jaarbeurs Utrecht will host Cybersec Netherlands, the country’s leading cybersecurity gathering. The timing could not be more important. According to the NCSC Threat Analysis Q2 2025, Dutch organizations continue to face digital threats, including continuous DDoS attacks from pro-Russian hacktivist groups, ransomware, and spear-phishing campaigns against strategic organizations. While large-scale digital sabotage is rare, opportunistic attacks remain frequent.

Themes of Cybersec Netherlands
Attendees gain insight into how Zero Trust frameworks, AI-driven security, and multi-cloud strategies are being applied across industries. These sessions give leaders the clarity to close gaps, strengthen defenses, and prepare for compliance with evolving regulations. With cyber risks expanding across IT, OT, and human factors, the event offers a complete view of the ecosystem.
Benefits of Joining the Community
Cybersec Netherlands is more than a conference; it is a hub for the Dutch IT-security ecoculture. In-person participation enables meaningful connections and knowledge
exchange that digital formats cannot fully deliver. The AI matchmaking tool ensures that participants connect with the most relevant peers, whether they are CISOs seeking strategy alignment, startups looking for investors, or enterprises exploring new solutions.
Face-to-face meetings with thought leaders, innovators, and decision-makers allow businesses to test ideas, validate technologies, and accelerate adoption. At the same time, sessions on Human Firewall and Employee-Powered Security highlight the importance of people as part of the security architecture. Shared learning helps organizations turn awareness into a lasting culture of vigilance.
Advancing Cybersecurity Together
Industry events like Cybersec Netherlands play a proven role in driving security progress. In past years, discussions on incident response planning and business continuity helped organizations adopt recovery playbooks that reduced downtime after ransomware attacks. Conversations around data protection and privacy-enhancing technologies pushed companies to move beyond compliance toward building trust with users and partners.
Cybersec Netherlands 2025 continues this momentum. By bringing operational technology security, automation, and compliance frameworks into focus, it ensures the community can tackle tomorrow’s threats with both innovation and collaboration. For end-users, the value lies in practical strategies. For vendors, it is a chance to demonstrate expertise. For investors, it provides visibility into the next wave of cybersecurity solutions.
