CRESTCon Australia Community Day 2026

Following Member feedback and a review of our events programme, CREST is evolving its approach in Australia to deliver a broader mix of targeted, high-value engagements. These are designed to better support our diverse community and create more opportunities for knowledge sharing, peer connection, and informed discussion

The CRESTCon Australia Community Day 2026 will take place on Wednesday, 13 May at the Hilton Sydney. Join us for a day of knowledge exchange with technical experts and networking with the wider Australian cybersecurity community.

The theme for the day is Threat Intelligence: From Signals to Strategy, with a focus on how intelligence is gathered, analysed, and used in real-world environments to stay ahead of adversaries and strengthen cyber resilience.

Whether you are just beginning your career in cybersecurity or are experienced in the field, this event will offer a great opportunity to hear the latest insights on emerging trends that shape the industry, and to meet with your peers from across the region.

📣 Call for Papers

We are inviting Call for Papers from cybersecurity practitioners across Australia to present their latest case studies.

This is a technical, closed-door practitioner-led forum focused on applied insight - not theory, not sales.

🎯 The theme is Threat Intelligence: From Signals to Strategy. We are particularly interested in submissions covering:

• How intelligence is gathered, analysed, and operationalised

• Threat hunting, DFIR, and detection use cases

• The intersection of Threat Intelligence with penetration testing, red teaming, SOC operations, or incident response

• Adversary behaviours, TTPs, and tooling

• Lessons learned, challenges, and what didn’t work

🚨 Submit your papers through this link: https://forms.office.com/e/1Hn9GvbNT7

Please submit your proposal by Friday, 17 April 2026. Late submissions may not be considered.
