Events
We host an annual SNSI Security Summit and participate in other events throughout the year.
Attending conferences and events is a great way to learn from cybersecurity experts, build organizational resilience, and address the problem of cybercrime in scholarly communications together as a community.
SNSI brings together the people best placed to tackle our shared cybersecurity challenges. Not just through our day-to-day work, but by convening the sector at our own annual SNSI Security Summit, and participating in other events throughout the year.
We hope you can join us.
SNSI Security Summit
Our flagship annual event brings together cybersecurity professionals, publishers, librarians, and institutional leaders to tackle the most pressing security challenges in scholarly publishing and research.
Past sessions are available to watch on demand, including our 2025 event 'Guardians of Information: Preparing Libraries for Cyber Threats'.
