The conference will be held for the 22nd time this year! We are extending the conference to a day and a half for the first time. A Capture the Flag competition oriented toward security practitioners of all levels will take place throughout the first half of the day. For a full day of captivating speakers and networking opportunities, it will bring together technologists and security experts, ranging from students to CISOs. Two keynote speakers, four tracks of breakout sessions, informal flash sessions, and a bustling exhibition floor are all featured during the conference. The cost of conference entry includes parking, lunch, and a cocktail reception with giveaways in the afternoon.
