OFFZONE 2025: dates and venue confirmed

The sixth international conference on practical cybersecurity OFFZONE will run on August 21–22 in Moscow’s GOELRO

February 20, 2025

Once again, the event will bring together the cybersecurity community: developers, engineers, independent researchers, lecturers, and students. They will discuss the challenges and latest developments within the industry.

In addition to expert talks, OFFZONE 2025 will offer a healthy dose of interactive content. Participants of workshops and hack quests will be able to try their hand at searching for vulnerabilities and developing security solutions. Some attendees will be lured into customizing their badges with a soldering iron, while others may even go as far as getting a permanent OFFZONE tattoo.

OFFZONE will be hosted offline, without a live stream.

In 2024, we broke our attendance record with 4,000 people. We’re delighted to see OFFZONE becoming a center of gravity for the cybersecurity community and a cornerstone event for the industry.

Initially though, OFFZONE was conceived as a low‑key get‑together. Following numerous requests from our regulars, we’ve decided to return to the original format and recreate the campfire vibe favored by our guests. This summer, we will cap the attendance at 2,500 to make sure each attendee gets the most out of OFFZONE.

Last year’s OFFZONE featured 124 experts. The event was supported by 50 partners, including 9 media outlets and 17 community groups. Among them were Sber, Т‑Bank, Positive Technologies, Kaspersky, and the Хакер magazine.

As part of the conference, we held our annual One Day Offer program to scout for talent.
