For the second consecutive year, the CSAW final brings together students from all over Europe at Grenoble INP - Esisar. More than 400 world-class elite students gathered for the finals from 8 to 10 November 2018. They have been selected in the preliminary rounds among more than 12,000 attendees, representing 100 countries.
The European edition in Valence brought together some 110 finalist students representing more than 23 European universities from 12 countries. They competed in four competitions in front of expert industrial and academic judges recognized in cybersecurity. For this second European edition, more than 400 visitors attended the event.
Also in Valence, Thales and STMicroelectronics gave lectures on cybersecurity issues and a recruitment forum brought together national and international industrial partners.

Created in 2008, the Embedded Security Challenge - the world's oldest and most important academic competition dedicated to physical security, and also the most challenging test of CSAW - contributes to the international development of research and teaching activities of this emerging discipline. This year, the event required competitors to hack connected bulbs to retrieve information. The teams then had to propose appropriate countermeasures.
