Cologne | Signal Security Summit

Europe’s leading security event focused on the human factor.

Formerly the Human Firewall Conference — new name, same community, bigger ambition.

Signal is SoSafe’s flagship event — built around a simple conviction: what one Security leader sees becomes sharper, more complete, more actionable when it’s shared across a community built for exactly this.

It’s the research that changes how you think about risk. The peer insight that saves you six months of trial and error. The early read on what’s coming next quarter, next year — pressure-tested by the people who’ve already been there.

Signal brings together a community of practitioners who understand one thing: security is, ultimately, a human challenge. And the strongest insights don’t come from silos — they come from the network.

One person spots a pattern. At Signal, the whole community sees it.

Here’s what
to expect.

The conversations shaping 2026

Becoming resilient,
together.

Resilience isn’t a product you buy or a box you tick. It’s a human capability — and it has to work at every level. The individual making a split-second call under pressure. The team holding steady during an incident. The organisation building a culture that doesn’t crumble when things go wrong.

This year’s programme is built around what that looks like in practice: how the evolving threat landscape is reshaping real-time decision-making, how to build security behaviours that stick beyond the training room, what organisational resilience looks like when it’s actually tested, how to stay sharp and avoid burnout in high-pressure roles, and what happens when a community shares signals instead of facing threats alone.

You’ll leave with frameworks, connections, and a clearer view of what’s coming next – and clear actions you can take immediately.
