BSides ICS/OT Paris 2026

The first French edition of BSides ICS/OT — a one-day, non-profit, community-run conference on industrial control system and operational technology security, organised by volunteers from the Inside OT Community. Two talk tracks of field reports and research, hands-on tooling and methodology workshops, an OT capture-the-flag with Red/Blue and ICS puzzle challenges, and an afterparty. 08:30 to 18:00 at the Campus Eiffel d'ECE, 10 rue Sextius Michel in the 15th. Paid, no price published yet and no refunds. The call for speakers had not opened when this went up, so the line-up is to come. Why go: content picked on merit with vendor pitches explicitly barred, in a field where most events are run by the vendors. Best for security engineers, industrial automation staff and CISOs in manufacturing, energy and utilities — anywhere a security failure has a physical consequence.
