The French edition of CloserStill Media's cloud and security exhibition, two days at Porte de Versailles inside Tech Show Paris, with cloud infrastructure, data centre, DevOps and data events sharing one badge.
Cloud & Cyber Security Expo Paris is the French edition of a security and cloud exhibition series run by CloserStill Media, which also operates the London, Frankfurt and Nordic editions. The 2026 edition runs on 18 and 19 November at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles as part of Tech Show Paris, an umbrella under which Cloud & AI Infrastructure, DevOps Live, Data Centre World and the Data & AI Leaders Summit run simultaneously on a single visitor badge. Third-party listings put the show at around 275 exhibitors and several thousand attendees.
France has two dominant security gatherings and they work in opposite directions. Les Assises in Monaco is closed, invitation-based and built on booked meetings. Cloud & Cyber Security Expo is open, free to attend and built on walking a floor. For a French security team without a Monaco invitation, or for a vendor without a Monaco partner budget, this is the accessible alternative, and its position inside Tech Show Paris means the security conversation happens next to the infrastructure and DevOps teams who implement it.
One registration covers all the Tech Show Paris events. In practice this changes who a vendor meets: a security stand receives infrastructure and data engineers who would not have registered for a security-only show, and a CISO can cross into the data centre or AI infrastructure halls without a second badge. The trade-off is dilution, since attendance is spread across several agendas rather than concentrated on security.
The conference theatres run free-to-attend sessions across the two days, mixing end-user case studies, analyst sessions and vendor-led technical talks. Content is delivered in French and English depending on the speaker. There is no paid congress layer of the kind it-sa runs in Nuremberg.
Yes for trade visitors who register in advance. The commercial model is exhibitor-funded, in line with the rest of the CloserStill Media portfolio.
Same series and organiser, different market. The London edition is the largest of the family; Paris, Frankfurt and the Nordic editions serve their national markets.
Opposite formats. Les Assises is invitation-based, paid for by vendors, and built around pre-booked one-to-one meetings in Monaco. This is an open, free exhibition in Paris where the visitor decides who to meet.
Porte de Versailles is Paris's main exhibition complex, inside the city and directly served by the metro, which supports the day-visitor model the show depends on.
The open French counterweight to Monaco, a free two-day floor where the security conversation sits next to cloud, data centre and DevOps under one badge.
Free trade visitor registration through the official website, covering all co-located Tech Show Paris events and all conference theatres. Exhibitor packages are quoted by CloserStill Media, with stand pricing based on floor area and location. There is no paid delegate tier.
