CyCon typically begins on the last Tuesday of May with a "Day 0" Workshop day that is notably less formal than the rest of the conference and focused on interactive workshops or discussion groups relevant to track attendees.
Days 1-3 of CyCon (actually the 2nd through the 4th day of the conference) contain a mixture of plenary and keynote sessions. Interventions have included inter alia, the sitting President of Estonia[2], a senior US representative, a senior NATO official, and other notable senior figures industry, government and other military organizations.[1]
In recent years, CyCon has also hosted "Cyber Commander's Forum" where cyber force commanders from NATO or NATO-friendly countries discuss their largest concerns and thoughts on the future of cyber conflict.
Past keynote speakers of note at CyCon include former USCYBERCOM Commander and NSA Director General Paul Nakasone, former NATO Assistant Secretary General for Innvation, Cyber defence and Hybrid Threats David van Weel[3], US Ambassador at Large for Cyberspace and Digital Policy Nathaniel Fick[4], and Cybersecurity Research Bruce Schneier.
The afternoon sessions of CyCon are earmarked for panels relating to the technical, legal and policy/strategy tracks. Often these panels are organised around original research submitted to the conference, and selected after peer review in accordance to IEEE standards. These papers are also published in the CyCon Conference Proceedings.
