University of Oregon Cybersecurity Club (UOSEC)

Visualization Lab, Allan Price Science Commons (PSC B006), University of Oregon, Eugene · In the city

Fall 2026: Thursdays 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. (general meeting) and Tuesdays 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. (workshop), through December 3, 2026 (workshops through December 8); no Thursday meeting on November 26. Rooms can change (the October 15 meeting was in the DREAM Lab); the club's live calendar is the source for room or time changes.

Student club. The site calls the Thursday session a public club with an open room and says everyone is welcome, but it does not say whether people outside the university may attend, and it states no dues. The October 29, 2026 meeting was a debrief of the club's second-place finish in the BSidesPDX CTF (October 23 and 24, 2026), described in a recap posted October 30, 2026. The fall schedule lists a Fall Term Summit on November 12 and a Fall Term Conference on November 19 (both listed as events below). No winter or spring schedule is published.

Conference series

Oregon Cyber Resilience Summit (OCRS)

Erb Memorial Union, University of Oregon, Eugene · In the city

Annual one-day summit in early October; the 2026 edition ran October 7, 2026, 8:30 a.m. to 5:45 p.m.; the 2027 edition is set for October 6, 2027.

Hosted by the University of Oregon with CISA, the FBI, the Oregon Department of Justice Titan Fusion Center and the Technology Association of Oregon. Registration for 2026 cost $25, waived for public sector (education and local, state and federal government) and non-profit participants; the registration page still shows only the 2026 terms, so the 2027 price is not stated. A student and professional team competition, the Oregon Cybersecurity Challenge Cup, ran online in September 2026; its page says the Jamboree and championship are typically scheduled for mid to late September and gives no 2027 dates. That the 2026 edition took place rests on the organizer site now listing it under Previous Summits with the home page rolled to the 2027 edition, and on the University of Oregon Cybersecurity Club's recap, which says OCRS met on Wednesday, October 7.
