Colloquium
The Virtual Routes Colloquium provides cybersecurity researchers and practitioners with a platform to present and get feedback on research projects and papers.
We hold monthly hour-long workshop meetings where participants can present research to the community. To ensure high-quality feedback, for each presentation an expert discussant will be identified and assigned to each paper who will provide detailed comments, before opening up the discussion to all participants.
SPRING/SUMMER SESSION 2025
Our spring/summer (February-May 2025) session focused on power and control in cyberspace.
The meetings took a closer look at how states, private actors, and individuals can leverage and are affected by digital and emerging technologies. We explored how power is asserted in cyberspace by regimes such as China and Iran, tackle the changing roles and responsibilities of private companies for cyber security, and examine the impact of new modes of surveillance and control on the rights and freedoms of individuals.
