About the Theme:

Many attackers today target the human, bypassing most security controls and using techniques such as social engineering to get the information they want. Awareness, not just technology, is now a key factor in an organization's goal to:

  • Reduce risk
  • Protect its reputation
  • Improve governance
  • Be compliant

Our goal is with this conference is to offer information to allow you and your organization to secure employees, contractors, IT staff, and management against these risks. We hope you will learn who is targeting the human and how the human is being attacked so you and your employees will learn how to protect yourselves, your organization, and your families.

As in past years, we also endeavor to offer other topics at the conference to diversify and enrich your experience.
