Sunshine on Our RSA Conference Shoulders
Cyber Security, Events, Innovation Posted Apr 13, 2018 by Gabrielle Kondracki
Heading out west to escape this never-ending New England chill seems like the smart move to make right about now. This lingering winter frost isn’t the only thing making the CHEN crew crave the opposite coast, though.
It’s the 2018 RSA Conference, set for next week in San Francisco at the Moscone Center, that has us California dreaming.
That’s because it’s one of the largest conferences for security leaders, pioneers and innovators sharing the ever-changing and groundbreaking research into technologies, products, services, threats and defenses alike.
Hosting those responsible for standing up against cyberthreats around the world, the RSA Conference brings together more than 50,000 attendees per year to exchange valuable content, network with other innovators, and inspire the security world to stay ahead of cyberattacks. CHEN PR’s client roster will be well represented again this year.
