On August 30, 2025, it was time again: BSides Frankfurt opened its doors – this year in the stylish ambience of the Goethe University’s Casino building. Around 200 to 250 IT security enthusiasts, experts and practitioners came together to spend a day immersed in the world of cyber security<\/strong>. For us at SECUINFRA, it wasn’t just a must-attend event – it was a highlight in the event calendar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lecture program already promised a lot – and delivered even more. Eight high-caliber sessions between 9 am and 6 pm covered a wide range of topics: from penetration testing and physical red teaming to threat intelligence and incident response. The mix was not only technically sound, but also extremely balanced – a real added value for all participants, regardless of their specialization in the field of IT security. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A special highlight right at the beginning: the keynote speech by Sergej Epp. In his presentation on the role of artificial intelligence in IT security, he made it impressively clear that the verification of AI output<\/strong> is becoming a mandatory discipline in the field of cyber defense <\/strong>– a topic that is also the subject of intense discussion in our company. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The presentations “Behind Closed Doors: Physical Red Team Tactics” with insights into commissioned physical break-ins to check security concepts and “Hunter vs. Hunted: A Ransomware Showdown with Hunters International”, which was particularly fascinating for us as incident responders<\/strong>, were also exciting. The detailed analysis of the tools and tactics of the Hunters International<\/em> group provided important insights for our daily work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, we as SECUINFRA were also represented on stage – with our presentation “Living on the Edge – Evicting threat actors from perimeter appliances”.<\/strong> In it, we shared practical experience from real investigations into compromised edge infrastructures<\/strong>. The focus was on vulnerabilities in Internet-exposed systems from Cisco, Ivanti, Citrix and Fortinet – and how attackers exploit them, be it with a political agenda or purely criminal energy. Our goal: to show how to recognize such incidents, investigate them forensically and effectively defend against future attacks. We were delighted by the great interest and the many specific questions from the audience – a big thank you at this point! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the professional exchange, networking was not neglected either: in the best late summer weather, the roof terrace became a meeting place for discussions, exchange of ideas and new contacts. The day ended in a relaxed atmosphere in the neighboring beer garden – and those who still had energy left enjoyed the vibrant Museumsuferfest on the Main. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our conclusion: BSides Frankfurt 2025 was once again a complete success. As in previous years, it not only offered excellent presentations and in-depth professional exchange, but above all the opportunity to get in touch with the local and international IT security community<\/strong>. We will definitely be back – with fresh topics, new insights and the same enthusiasm for cyber defense. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
