Staying ahead of the curve of evolving security threats is imperative for any organization, and understanding the human element of cybersecurity is more critical than ever. Convene was launched by the National Cybersecurity Alliance to serve people who work at the intersection of people and security. It’s more than a conference; it is an unparalleled opportunity for security training and awareness professionals to gain critical insights, network with industry leaders, and learn about the latest advancements.
Attending Convene is a strategic investment for your personal development and your organization’s cybersecurity posture. We try to rotate locations around the country to reach as many people as possible – including you! Feel free to share this information with your boss to make the business case for why you need to Convene with us.
Expert-led sessions on cutting-edge topics
Convene conferences boast a lineup of experts who will delve into the most pressing issues in training and awareness today. You will learn the latest developments in awareness, phishing campaigns, social engineering, behavioral science, and managing human risk. These sessions are designed to equip attendees (and their organizations!) with actionable insights and practical strategies that can be immediately implemented. The opportunity to learn from leading minds in the field will ensure that you are at the forefront of cybersecurity trends and best practices.
Networking with industry leaders
One of Convene’s standout features is connecting with a close-knit community of security training and awareness professionals. This includes representatives from business, government, law enforcement, and academia! With few opportunities for in-person interaction, this event is a unique chance to build relationships with peers who face similar challenges and share your passion for training and awareness. Networking sessions, panel discussions, and social events are designed to foster meaningful connections, allowing you to exchange ideas, discuss solutions, and collaborate on future projects.
Exposure to innovative solutions
The event will feature a diverse array of exhibitors showcasing the latest tools and technologies in cybersecurity. We will talk about innovative ways to reach people where they are. One recent example was a Scoville scale for software security – think Hot Ones! Convene is an excellent opportunity to explore solutions to enhance your organization’s security training and awareness programs. Interacting with vendors will allow you to understand better how these products can be tailored to meet your organization’s specific needs, providing a competitive edge in managing and mitigating cyber risks.
Learn best practices from thought leaders
Every Convene’s agenda is jam-packed with experts. Dozens of thought leaders attend each conference. Thought leaders and industry executives will share their experiences, including both successes and challenges, from their campaigns. These real-world case studies provide valuable lessons and practical insights that can be applied to your organization’s cybersecurity efforts. Learning from the experiences of others will help your organization avoid pitfalls and enhance the effectiveness of your initiatives.
Build camaraderie and foster innovation
The immersive nature of Convene is designed to build camaraderie among attendees twice a year. Engaging with like-minded professionals in a focused environment breeds innovation and sparks new ideas. The collaborative atmosphere encourages sharing knowledge and experiences, leading to creative solutions and new approaches to cybersecurity challenges. The connections and friendships formed at Convene can lead to long-term professional relationships and ongoing collaboration.
Brag about your org and get speaking experience
We try to create an immersive, engaging experience with every Convene. We set aside time in every agenda for a “Security Share + Brag” where attendees can tell the whole audience about an experience or tool you created that you think others would benefit from. This is an excellent opportunity to share your organization’s wins, and you can explore what it is like to speak at a conference!
Convene is a great value
You get a lot of bang for your buck with Convene! Convene is only two days, which means two nights in a hotel. Convene moves around to make the conference cost effective for people located across the country. And the cost of a ticket is a great value compared to many other cybersecurity conferences.
Attending Convene is not just a learning opportunity. It’s an investment in your organization’s security and, therefore, your success. A ticket to Convene is a strategic decision that will benefit you and your organization significantly. The knowledge gained, connections made, and innovative solutions discovered at this event will enhance your ability to develop and implement practical security training and awareness programs. Attending Convene will equip you with the latest tools and insights to protect your organization from the new generation of threats.
Need some bullet points to convince your boss that a ticket to Convene is worth it?
Your home internet router is probably the most important device you never think about. A new memo from the United States government now suggests it’s a prime target for hackers.
“Ideally, training and education are the last resort.”
