The sixth edition of the international conference will bring together industry professionals and researchers to explore the challenges of Safety, Cybersecurity and Cyber Resilience in critical systems. 

We are pleased to announce that QA&TEST Safety & Cybersecurity 2027 will take place in Madrid, Spain, on April 21–22, 2027. 

Organised by Software Quality Systems (SQS), QA&TEST Safety & Cybersecurity is an international conference dedicated to exploring how safety and cybersecurity can be addressed in an integrated and consistent way throughout the entire lifecycle of systems, products and components. 

As industrial systems become increasingly connected, intelligent and complex, ensuring their safe and secure operation presents new challenges for engineering teams and organisations. Meeting these challenges requires innovative technologies, effective methodologies and closer collaboration between safety and cybersecurity professionals. 

Safety, Cybersecurity and Cyber Resilience 

The 2027 edition will continue to focus on the development and operation of safe and secure critical systems, with particular attention to Cyber Resilience. 

Beyond preventing and detecting cyberattacks, organisations must also consider how systems can maintain essential operations during an incident and recover safely and efficiently afterwards. 

The conference will explore technical approaches, methodologies and practical experiences addressing these challenges across industries, including the development of secure embedded systems, software and hardware protection, regulatory requirements, and verification and testing activities. 

An international forum for technical knowledge exchange 

QA&TEST Safety & Cybersecurity provides a platform for engineers, researchers, consultants and industry professionals to exchange knowledge and share real-world experiences. 

The conference places particular value on technically grounded contributions and practical solutions that can help organisations improve the safety, cybersecurity and resilience of their systems.
