In the organizer's words:

On January 13, 2026 at 7:30 pm, cybersecurity experts from the CASA Cluster of Excellence at the Horst Görtz Institute for IT Security and the Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy (MPI-SP) will uncover the invisible dangers of the Internet for you - understandable for laypeople and in a relaxed bar atmosphere.

For the fourth edition of the event series, CyBARsecurity will be a guest at Bochum's Bar Goldkante.

Whether you are an IT nerd or a simple internet user, we invite all interested parties to take an exclusive look behind the scenes of cyber security research in Bochum.
