(Spain) from 10 - 12 of march 2022.

With an estimated seating from 2.500 to 3.000 people, is the most
relevant specialized congress that is held in the country, and one of
the most relevant in Europe, with attendee profiles ranging from
students, Law Enforcenment Agencies to professionals in the technology

This is our XII edition, after the restrictions pause. And as in every
edition, we want it to make it special :)


-=] Talk types

We will mostly accept two kind of talks:

- Fast talks:      20 minutes.
