COVID-19 SITUATION

Currently LSS-EU is planned as in-person event, however this would be
re-evaluated closer to the event itself and if the situation in Europe does
not permit such events, it would be switched to a virtual event, similarly
as this year=E2=80=99s LSS-NA.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

We're seeking a diverse range of attendees and welcome participation by
people involved in Linux security development, operations, and research.

LSS-EU is a unique global event that provides the opportunity to present an=
d
discuss your work or research with key Linux security community members and
maintainers.  It=E2=80=99s also useful for those who wish to keep up with t=
he latest
in Linux security development and to provide input to the development
process.
