Purpose of CYDEF

CYDEF aims to disseminate information, share awareness, and establish collaboration.

Dissemination of information means gathering experts and knowledgeable people with various experiences and knowhow, and providing a forum for them to present their opinions. This allows us to come into contact with information to which we are not usually exposed, and to obtain hints for solving everyday problems.

Sharing awareness is about collective perceptions and gaining a foundation of understanding through presentations. This allows us to understand the common threats and work together to address them.

Establishing collaboration means understanding each other and building common ground through presentations, allowing us to cooperate on common issues.

While listening to the discussions of experts and specialists worldwide, we hope to build a framework for mutual understanding and cooperation by presenting similar issues and approaches from different countries and positions.

About CYDEF2024

About CYDEF

This conference brings together experts in the field of cyber defense from around the world, to disseminate information, share awareness and establish collaboration. It aims to deepen and broaden understanding of these objectives through discussions.

Since its inaugural meeting in 2018, CYDEF has consistently grown, attracting approximately 300 speakers and 5,500 audience members over the past six years.

CYDEF 2024, now in its seventh year, will center around sessions organized by associated research institutes primarily from NATO countries, as in the previous year, while also expanding its framework to include the Indo-Pacific nations.

Moving forward, we aim to position CYDEF as a key hub for collaboration between industry, government and academia, both domestically and internationally.

Conference Features

Invitation of experts from all over the world

As in previous years, we will invite distinguished figures in the field of cyber defense innovation, including government ministers, cyber ambassadors, cyber commanders, university researchers and corporate executives from various countries.

Facilitating understanding through simultaneous Japanese-English interpretation

To assist those who are not proficient in English, simultaneous Japanese-English interpretation is provided, enabling participants to follow the proceedings by listening to expert discussions that have been appropriately translated, including those on specialized fields.

CYDEF2024 Symbol Mark

Regarding the Design of the Conference Symbol Mark:

In bird symbolism, the Red-flanked Bluetail represents “strong will”. The image of the birds flying together toward the future represents co-creation, while the lightning signifies threats. The inclusion of lightning is inspired by the saying that a year with many strikes brings a bountiful harvest, reflecting the idea of overcoming challenges to achieve great outcomes.
