The Luxembourg House of Cybersecurity (LHC) has announced that applications are open for the 2026 Cybersecurity Week Luxembourg (CSWL) Gala & Awards Night, which will take place on Thursday 22 October 2026 from 18:30 at Kinepolis in Luxembourg-Kirchberg.
The CSWL is a national campaign coordinated by the LHC, bringing together events organised by members of Luxembourg's cybersecurity ecosystem. It aims to raise cybersecurity awareness, promote collaboration and showcase national expertise across the public and private sectors.
Marking the tenth anniversary of the Gala & Awards Night, this year's event will conclude the 2026 campaign by bringing together cybersecurity professionals to celebrate excellence and innovation within Luxembourg's cybersecurity ecosystem.
Applications are now open in four categories: CISO of the Year 2026, DPO of the Year 2026, the Cybersecurity Startup Award and the Cyberfraud.lu Solution Award. The organisers said the CISO and DPO of the Year recognitions celebrate professionals whose achievements strengthen Luxembourg's cybersecurity, privacy and data protection communities by inspiring others and promoting trust, compliance and collaboration across the sector.
The Cybersecurity Startup Award recognises innovative solutions that reinforce Luxembourg's cybersecurity ecosystem. The winning startup will receive tailored support through the LUCYA programme and its partners to further develop its activities in Luxembourg.
Meanwhile, the Cyberfraud.lu Solution Award aims to recognise Luxembourg-based providers that develop technologies and services to detect, prevent, investigate or mitigate online fraud. Eligible solutions must already be available on the Luxembourg market.
The Gala & Awards Night is open to everyone involved in Luxembourg's cybersecurity ecosystem. As places are limited, advance registration is required.
