As attack methods grow increasingly diverse, government agencies and private enterprises continue to expand their cybersecurity investments and place greater emphasis on security education and training to address gaps in policy and tool application. The Taiwan Hacker Association continues to offer the HITCON Training series and sincerely invites cybersecurity experts to submit proposals as instructors, providing professionals from both public and private sectors with opportunities for advancement and helping them improve their technical and incident response capabilities to combat emerging threats.
Whether your expertise lies in Web Security, Penetration Testing, Reverse Engineering, Digital Forensics, Cloud Security, AI Security, or any other cybersecurity domain — we warmly welcome your submission! We look forward to you sharing real-world offensive and defensive experience through a tiered course design where participants can learn hands-on and gain in-depth exposure to the latest cybersecurity techniques.
Becoming a HITCON Training instructor not only represents the HITCON brand, but is also a distinguished recognition. We look forward to collaborating with you to showcase professional value and strengthen the HITCON brand's influence.
