The "Denkwerkstatt" on November 14 and 15, 2025, in Berlin marks the start of a new cycle in the “Dialog für Cybersicherheit.” At the annual event, ideas, topics, questions, and visions for cybersecurity across society will be shared with the BSI and committed individuals from civil society, culture and media, science, business, and government in a participatory format. Further, ideas for new workstreams - topics that interested representatives of various stakeholder groups will work on in the cycle following the "Denkwerkstatt" - will be presented and selected. The deadline for submitting idea sketches for this year’s „Denkwerstatt" is August 31, 2025. A virtual community meeting will take place on August 14, 2025, where questions about the template, the selection criteria, and the process from submission to voting will be answered. SECUSO itself has participated in workstreams in recent years. Since November 2024, Anne Hennig supports the "Dialogkomitee" of the "Dialog für Cybersicherheit" as part of the stakeholder group Sciene.
