At Red Canary, we believe in fostering a culture of knowledge sharing and professional growth. That’s why we actively track security conferences with open calls for papers (CFP). This proactive approach allows us to empower our team of security experts to contribute their invaluable insights and research to the broader cybersecurity community through speaking engagements.
We recognize that several excellent resources already exist for tracking CFPs, such as WikiCFP or CFP Time. These platforms offer comprehensive listings and advanced filtering capabilities. However, we’ve developed a slightly streamlined version of a CFP tracker internally. It recently occurred to us that sharing this more straightforward approach might be beneficial to others in the community who are looking for a less complex, yet still highly functional, way to stay on top of upcoming speaking opportunities. We hope our contribution can help other security professionals find the right venues to share their expertise.
