Bulgaria to host an important digital security conference in 2026
Sofia is preparing to host the third edition of the Bulgarian Identity Conference in 2026. The event is aimed at professionals in the fields of technology and cybersecurity, with its primary focus being on data protection in the modern digital world.
A key theme of the conference will be the role of digital identity in the context of new European regulations, known as NIS2 and DORA. These rules aim to increase the level of security for networks and information systems across the entire European Union, including in Bulgaria.
Experts at the forum will discuss the management of so-called "non-human identities." These are automated systems and software tools that have access to critical data. With the advent of artificial intelligence and new AI agents, the issue of their security is becoming increasingly critical for businesses and government institutions.
The conference provides a platform for sharing experience and best practices between Bulgarian and international specialists. Participants will have the opportunity to learn how to adapt to the changing legal framework and how to protect their digital assets from cyber threats.
The event is expected to attract widespread interest, as cybersecurity is becoming a priority for every modern organization. The organizers emphasize that understanding new technologies is key to the stability of the digital economy in the country.
