BLUF

Schneier shared his near-term speaking schedule, including talks in Montreal, Toronto, San Francisco, and Brampton.

The entries provide event names, locations, dates, and specific talk times where available.

Why I Care

For security professionals, researchers, students, and policy audiences, these events offer direct access to Schneier’s perspectives on security, democracy, technology policy, and emerging threats. They also signal topics he is actively emphasizing in late 2026.

Next Steps

Security teams should calendar the relevant talks by October 14–October 29 depending on location; conference attendees should register or confirm sessions before event dates; organizations can assign staff to attend or monitor livestreams if available; and interested readers should follow Schneier on Security for updates, cancellations, or additional appearances.
