All postsA day for candid conversations, practical insights, and a deeper understanding of real-world testing and how it benefits your customers.
On 11 June, we’ll be welcoming some of the world’s leading cyber security organisations to Wimbledon, London for this year’s SE Labs Workshop and Annual Awards.
Those who joined last year will already have a feel for the day. For everyone else, here’s what makes it genuinely useful — and why so many said they’d return.
At its core, this is a one-day event built specifically security developers and product managers. No marketing gloss. No sales pitch. Just a clear and open look at how modern security testing works, where it’s heading, and how that connects directly to the products you build.
What the Day Looks Like
We’ll spend the day working through the areas shaping both our testing and the wider industry. That includes XDR, ransomware, anti-spam, and Mac security, alongside how we are approaching testing zero trust and validating anti-tamper resilience. We will also share what is developing within the PIVOT programme and what that means in practice.
But the real value is not just in the presentations. It’s in the conversations around them. The questions, the challenges, and the chance to sit down with our testing team and talk in-depth.
As Nick Kelly from Trellix said after last year’s event:
“It was a pleasure to attend and meet yourself and the team at SE Labs and learn more about the testing methodology… I thought the presentations were all really well delivered and very informative, and the event very beneficial overall.”
That openness is deliberate. This is a space where you can properly understand how results are produced, what sits behind them, and how they are interpreted by customers.
Why it’s Worth Your Time
The feedback we hear most often is that the day helps developers get a much clearer picture of what good testing actually looks like in modern security products.
Not in theory, but in the context of real-world testing and real customer impact.
Righard Zwienenberg from ESET put it simply:
“The content was interesting and better than expected… We’re already looking forward to the workshop next year!”
When you understand how testing is evolving, it becomes much easier to align product decisions, messaging, and customer conversations with what really matters.
It is also a rare chance to spend time with peers in the same space. Not rushing between meetings, but having insightful conversations with people dealing with the same challenges.
The Awards and the Evening
We will close the day with the SE Labs Annual Awards, followed by drinks and dinner.
The awards recognise cyber security products and organisations that consistently perform at a high level across public testing, private assessments, and enterprise client feedback. It is about sustained performance and real world results.
After that, we slow things down a bit. The evening is a chance to continue the conversations from the day in a more relaxed setting.
As Paul Walker from McAfee shared with us, it was not just the content that stood out, but the warmth, professionalism and genuine enthusiasm of the team and the overall experience.
A Genuinely Useful Day
There is no attendance fee. The only investment is your time and travel.
What you get back is clarity. A better understanding of how your product is tested. And a much closer connection to how those results are seen by customers.
