Just like last year, we’re relocating the event to bring more of you together in one place. For this Cyber Cafe, we’re delighted to welcome you to ‘Maneblussers City’, located at the newly built Malinas Park in Mechelen, so there will be no need to look for a parking spot! The doors to the Cyber Café will open at 17:30.

26/03/2024 – Toreon Cyber Café
Cyber Café, powered by Toreon & Data protection Insitute
Last year, Toreon and Data Protection Institute joined forces to take our Cyber Café to the next level, and we’re happy to announce that we’re doing it all over again!
We’re excited to announce the third edition of our Cyber Café, which will take place on March 26, 2024!
Founded in 2013, Toreon has established itself as a leading force in the cybersecurity industry, safeguarding clients worldwide and sharing invaluable insights along the way. As part of our ongoing commitment to fostering a strong cybersecurity community, the Cyber Café was brought to life.
Relive the first edition:
An evening filled with cybersecurity topics
Naturally, our Cyber Café would be nothing without our exciting speakers ready to fill your evening with interesting cybersecurity stories. Up first is Tijl Deneut, an experienced Ethical Hacker and Security Lead at E-bo Enterprises, who will review the major differences between an IT and OT environment, and how a company can protect its OT assets. Our second speaker is Michaël Boeckx, CIO at Securex, with a track record of 20 years of IT experience with organizations such as NRB Group, VF Corporation, IRIS ICT, and IBM. During his talk, he will discuss how to create a controllable security practice whilst balancing the risks and budget. Please note that both talks will be held in Dutch.
We conclude our day with an evening café, providing everyone with the opportunity to network and engage with our Toreonites, while enjoying plenty of food and beverages, of course!

During this session, Tijl will discuss the major differences between an IT and OT environment, what the risks and vulnerabilities are, and how these can easily be exploited.

Tijl Deneut has over 8 years of experience in the IT security sector and is an Ethical Hacker and an active EC-Council Certified Instructor. Tijl also teaches at the Howest University College and the Ghent University, where he also leads several research projects.
