About SecTor
Canada's premier IT security conference, providing insight from security researchers and practitioners across North America.
SecTor 2026
SecTor runs 6–8 October 2026 at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre in Toronto, Ontario.
SecTor is Canada's largest cybersecurity conference — part of the Black Hat family of events — bringing practitioner-level security research, training and an expo floor to the Canadian security community. The programme runs from deeply technical briefings and hands-on trainings through to the management track for CISOs.
For Canadian security teams it is the domestic alternative to travelling for Black Hat USA, with the same calibre of speakers on home ground.
