Vienna International Ethical Hacking Boot Camp
4th Edition - 2026
What is the Bootcamp?
From July 2–5, 2026, TU Wien will host the fourth edition of the International Ethical Hacking Bootcamp — an intensive, practice-oriented training event focused on cybersecurity fundamentals, ethical hacking techniques, and real-world attack scenarios. Designed for students, young professionals, and cybersecurity enthusiasts, the program offers hands-on experience in areas such as penetration testing, vulnerability assessment, and defensive strategies.
Around 150 participants are expected, including national teams from Austria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Kosovo, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Serbia, Germany, Switzerland, and Italy.
Led by a distinguished lineup of international experts—including sessions on hardware hacking, reverse engineering, mobile and web security, and digital forensics—the event fosters joint learning, practical skill development, and cross-border networking. A Capture The Flag (CTF) exercise on the second day will emphasize collaborative problem-solving over competition.
The bootcamp continues to strengthen Vienna’s role as a hub for cybersecurity training, research, and international collaboration.
