Infosecurity Europe

Infosecurity Europe is an annual cybersecurity exhibition and conference run by RX at Excel London, where vendors of security products and services meet security leaders, practitioners and channel partners. The organiser says it hosts more than 13,000 cybersecurity professionals and more than 300 vendors each year. The first show took place in 1996.

Who visits

The organiser’s attendee profile is led by finance and banking, government, retail and manufacturing, with job functions from security leadership and operations to risk, compliance and cloud security. Top areas of interest include AI-powered security, threat detection and response, identity and access management and managed security services. Related events include the National Cyber Security Show and The Security Event, both at NEC Birmingham from 27 April 2027, and more appear among our technology and security shows.

Show floor zones and conference

Exhibitors are grouped into feature zones. The Discovery Zone is kept for companies new to the event, the Cyber Startups Zone hosts new cybersecurity organisations, and the Cyber Innovation Zone features micro, small and medium-sized businesses, an area the show’s history page says is backed by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology. The exhibitor directory also flags Cloud Security Alliance members and CSA STAR Level 2 certified vendors.

The most recent programme included a Keynote Stage covering geopolitics, AI and current threats, SANS workshops on subjects such as LLM security and post-quantum cryptography, summits run with the OWASP GenAI Security Project and the FAIR Institute, and the tenth annual Women in Cybersecurity event. The Infosec Meets platform lets attendees book 1:1 meetings with peers and vendors.

History

According to the organiser’s timeline, the show set up its Hall of Fame in 2008 and began the Leaders Programme in 2016. It moved to Excel London in 2022, and in 2024 the Women in Cybersecurity event was held on the main keynote stage for the first time, with more than 450 attendees. The 2025 show marked 30 years and added the AI and Cloud Security Theatre. RX also runs The London Book Fair at Excel London from 16 March 2027 and All-Energy at SEC Glasgow from 12 May 2027.

Exhibiting

RX reports that more than 6,000 different companies attended across the three days and that over 100,000 leads were generated at the 2025 show. It also states that 61% of budget holders manage budgets between £250k and £1M. First-time exhibitors are offered packages in the Discovery Zone and Cyber Start-Ups Zone and companies interested in exhibiting are asked to contact the team to check availability on the show floor.

Getting to Excel London

The organiser recommends the Jubilee line to Canning Town, then a Beckton-bound DLR train to Excel. The Elizabeth line also serves the venue, with connections at Farringdon, Paddington and Liverpool Street. Excel has 3,070 parking spaces at a flat £25 for up to 24 hours, and London City Airport is less than a mile away. Hotels can be booked through the show’s accommodation partner HotelMap. The organiser does not issue visitor invitation letters, but says the registration confirmation email should support a visa application. More events in the capital are listed under trade shows in London.
