Subject: A new conference on security in Open Source
To: OSGeo <info at osgeo.org>


Dear OSGeo-team,

we at Plain Schwarz care deeply about supporting open source and free
software. We do this by organizing conferences like Berlin Buzzwords and
FOSS Backstage.
Not only because of various security incidents in the last years like
Log4Shell and Heartbleed, we think that security should be discussed with a
special focus on FOSS. That why we launched a new event called FOSS
Security Campus <https://foss-security-campus.de/> which we hope could be
of interest to OSGeo.

*What is FOSS Security Campus?*

FOSS Security Campus, is a new event focusing on IT security in the FOSS
and open source sector. It will take place in Berlin, September 26-29th,
2023 for the first time. Topics include Open Source Supply Chains, Security
Processes, Vulnerability Disclosure, Bug Bounties, Security by Design, Risk
Mitigation and much more.
The conference part of the event will kick off with a keynote by Melanie
Rieback on "How business models are conflicting with a cybersecure world
<https://program.foss-security-campus.de/fossec23/talk/RSCTGP/>" and on the
second conference day we are looking forward to a keynote by Thijs Ebbers
and Jan Vogel on Zero Privilege Architectures
<https://program.foss-security-campus.de/fossec23/talk/UDEKVT/>.

*Why Campus?*

FOSS Security Campus comprises of two days of full-day and multi-day
training courses, followed by a two day conference.
We are offering in-depth training courses by distinguished experts on the
topics of open source and security, to empower developers, dev ops

their products more secure.
