To the closing report

“it-sa Expo&Congress has set new best records. More exhibitors and more space than ever, in four booked-up halls – all of that once again highlighted it-sa Expo&Congress’s importance for the IT security industry. It’s also the place for IT security officers to go when they want to talk over cybersecurity issues – that’s clear from 33 percent more visitors than for the last edition, and the high level of international participation.”
