Summit Speakers
At a Summit, you'll connect with active cyber security practitioners and industry experts that deliver applicable content based on real-world experience.
Speakers and presentations are reviewed and selected by the Summit chair(s) and an advisory board to ensure the material presented gives attendees actionable information they can implement immediately upon returning to their organizations.
Level Up Your Expertise
Summits are comprised of in-depth presentations, panel discussions, interactive workshops, and sharing forums, where you'll collaborate with fellow cyber security practitioners to generate solutions and uncover tools that will help you protect your organization from ever-evolving threats.
In-Depth Talks
Summits feature a series of talks about specific tools, proven techniques, and innovative strategies. These presentations utilize case studies and demonstrations that make them as dynamic as they are useful.
Panel Discussions
Panel discussions bring together leading experts to discuss and debate a specific topic of interest. These discussions will expose you to different perspectives and experiences so that you can gain a more comprehensive view of the topic at hand. The Live Q&A interaction between audience and panelists is what makes these sessions so valuable.
Interactive Workshops
Workshops provide the opportunity to walk though realistic scenarios with your peers and generate action plans. Workshops are led by experts and use case studies to help attendees examine a scenario and make decisions based on the information provided.
Sharing Forums
Summits include sessions designed to give you the chance to share ideas, success stories, and lessons learned. Whether this is done through lightning talks, Video Wars, networking lunches, or live debates, you'll get the perspective of other attendees who are facing the same challenges you are.
