September

September 18, 2023 – September 22, 2023

Meydenbauer Center, 11100 NE 6th St Bellevue, WA 98004

SECtember 2023 is the essential industry conference to assist organizations in elevating their cybersecurity capabilities.

Diversity in Security Luncheon, September 21, 2023, 12:00 PM – 1:30 PDT

Diversity is critical in cloud security. Security systems must work for all users and a variety of perspectives can help deliver the best solution. When a single culture designs a security solution, often that solution will work well for the users of that background, but it might not work for other communities. Increasing diversity in the cybersecurity community will strengthen our overall security posture. Join us for lunch as we hear from prominent industry insiders who represent a variety of backgrounds and share their experiences as we explore how to make the cloud security industry more inclusive.
