The 4th CyberWeek@LAC4 and 0ct0b3rf35t will take place in Santo Domingo, the Dominican Republic from 17th to 20th November 2025.

The event will bring together cybersecurity professionals, policymakers, researchers and business leaders from Latin America, the Caribbean and Europe to collaborate, share insights and strengthen regional and global cyber resilience. 

“CyberWeek@LAC4 has become the place to be for fostering collaboration and cyber resilience building in LAC. Building on the success of previous editions, we look forward to welcome cybersecurity professionals in Santo Domingo again in this November to tackle emerging challenges and connect to strengthen regional resilience.” – Liina Areng, Director of LAC4   

The last edition in 2024 welcomed over 100 participants and speakers from more than 40 countries to discuss topics ranging from ransomware and AI to cross-border incident response strategies. It underscored the critical role of cross-regional partnerships in building cyber resilience. Participants were successfully empowered to tackle current and future challenges in cybersecurity through hands-on sessions, strategic insights and open discussions.   

The annual CyberWeek@LAC4 has laid the groundwork for a more resilient, connected cybersecurity community across Latin America and the Caribbean and paved the way for enhanced operational collaboration between the region and Europe and beyond.
