CASA Distinguished Lectures & CASA Invited Talks

To deepen our dialogue with the scientific community, CASA and the HGI host two speaker series: CASA Distinguished Lectures and CASA Invited Talks. Talks typically run for about an hour and are followed by an open discussion with the audience; both series aim to encourage dialogue and open new perspectives in cybersecurity research.

The key difference is the speaker profile: CASA Distinguished Lectures feature renowned, high‑profile national and international leaders in the field, while CASA Invited Talks provide a platform for a broader range of speakers and topics, including emerging voices and new directions.

The lectures and talks are usually held in person at Ruhr University Bochum. You can also join online, making the series accessible to audiences worldwide. The access link for each event is posted alongside the speaker details.
