Westcon-Comstor outlines its role in RISK Conference 2026, emphasising regional collaboration and cybersecurity advancements in the Balkans.

Westcon-Comstor has announced its involvement in the RISK Conference 2026. The event is a cybersecurity conference in the Balkans that brings together industry professionals, channel partners, and technology experts to discuss trends and threats in the cybersecurity landscape.

Marking its twentieth year, the RISK Conference brings together cybersecurity professionals and decision-makers from eight Balkan countries. It provides a platform for knowledge sharing, collaboration, and discussion of developments shaping the cybersecurity sector.

This year’s participation marks Westcon-Comstor’s first involvement since its acquisition of REAL Security, the cybersecurity distributor that organises the conference and has developed it into a regional annual security event.

The RISK Conference 2026 will take place in Slovenia on 10–11 June and will bring together regional and international cybersecurity professionals. The programme includes expert-led sessions, demonstrations, and interactive discussions focused on practical use cases, emerging AI-related threats, and evolving security requirements.

Westcon-Comstor will be represented by senior leadership and cybersecurity specialists, alongside the integrated REAL Security team. The company will contribute to discussions on partner enablement, technical expertise, and approaches to addressing cybersecurity challenges.

The conference focuses on engagement across the regional cybersecurity ecosystem, providing opportunities for partners and customers to access information on security solutions and industry developments. Westcon-Comstor’s participation is intended to support knowledge sharing and collaboration within the Balkans cybersecurity community.
