Munster Technological University is delighted to announce that we will be hosting the 26th International Passwords Conference (PasswordsCon) on the 8th-9th of December 2026.
PasswordsCon is the world's first conference dedicated to passwords, PINs, and digital authentication. Founded in 2010 by Per Thorsheim at the University of Bergen, Norway, the conference has since traveled to cities across Europe and the United States.
Bringing together researchers, practitioners, and enthusiasts, PasswordsCon explores the latest in authentication security, usability, and policy.
We are especially excited to share that PasswordsCon will be co-located with the 5th Cyber Research Conference Ireland (CRCI) on the 10th of December 2026, bringing together leading researchers, industry experts, and innovators from across the cybersecurity community.
