Belgium is one of the fastest-growing nations in the world when it comes to cyber security. Over the last few years, the Belgian government and popular organizations have actively worked to keep the country secure in the face of increasingly complex cyber threats.

In 2019, the government rolled out the Belgium Cyber Security Strategy. This policy acts as the singular point of reference for all the initiatives and strategies that the country is enacting to keep its digital infrastructure safe. The policy covers the areas of risk assessment, cyber resilience, incident response, training, and international cooperation.

The Belgian government also organizes and participates in a variety of cyber security events and conferences, including Digital Matters, CONNECTIS, and Cybersec Europe. These conferences discuss the latest cybersecurity trends, and upcoming security challenges, and develop best practices for cybersecurity.

Moreover, Belgium is one of the few countries that has enacted a national anti-cybercrime law that sets out sanctions and legal actions to deter and punish cybercrime. The law strengthens the collaboration between law enforcement and government agencies to combat cybercrime.

Finally, the country is home to many leading ICT defense and cyber security companies including SECURITYMADEIN.LU, Fortress Global, and Cybersec SA. These companies provide a full suite of cyber security services, including vulnerability management, security assessments, auditing, and malware analysis.

Given the recent developments in Belgium, the country is well-positioned to become a leader in cyber security in Europe. With the government’s commitment to cybersecurity, IT security companies, and the increasing number of cyber security events in the country, it has become a hub for cyber security in the region.

24th March 2026 | The EU Cyber Acts Conference 2026

The EU Cyber Acts Conference 2026 focuses on one of the most important policy developments shaping cybersecurity across Europe. It provides a clear, structured setting for developers, manufacturers, and compliance officers to understand new requirements under the Cyber Resilience Act, the EU Common Criteria Scheme, and related directives. The sessions focus on how to align product design, certification, and post-market obligations with EU standards. Attendees hear directly from regulatory leaders and practitioners who work with these frameworks every day.

Now in its seventh year, the conference continues to build a practical bridge between regulation and implementation. Participants come to exchange methods for compliance readiness and to understand how Europe’s approach impacts global operations. The discussions highlight collaboration across borders and emphasize long-term resilience over short-term fixes. It remains one of the few gatherings where developers, auditors, and policymakers can meet to find shared clarity on Europe’s evolving cybersecurity rules.
