Registering over 490 exhibitors from 19 countries, this year's IT security trade fair, “it-sa”, ended in Nuremberg. The massive rise in professional trade visitors from Germany and abroad, now numbering over 10,000, shows that interest in the trade fair is steadily growing.

18 October 2016. In addition to the usual trade-fair activities, three dialogue platforms provided information for professional trade visitors on various topics such as protection against DDOS attacks, progressive methods of malware identification, combating ransomware, and cloud security. Live hacking demonstrations rounded off the interesting presentations delivered by the experts.
