In just a couple of weeks, thousands of industry professionals and security experts will gather to present new research, discuss the latest trends and mingle with the industry’s elite in Las Vegas. Among them will be a handful of CHEN PR’s clients – some will be speaking on hot topics like diversity in hiring and container security; while others will be hosting happy hours or showing off their products in the exhibition hall.
If you’ll be hitting the Vegas Strip on August 3 – 8, 2019, be sure to say hello to our client roster, and CHEN PR partner, Kevin Kosh! Below here is an overview of where you can find everyone the week of Black Hat 2019.
Attending:
Digital Guardian CEO Mo Rosen (former GM for Cybersecurity at CA), CSO/CMO Connie Stack and VP of Cybersecurity Tim Bandos (former Dir of IR and Threat Intel at Dupont) will be on-site, and if interested, can chat on a range of data/endpoint security and compliance issues and trends, including IP theft and SOC operations. Digital Guardian is also sponsoring the Level 1 Main Escalator Lobby with free coffee and a complimentary happy hour. Check out the details here: https://digitalguardian.com/blackhat-2019
Capsule8 Co-founder and Chief Scientist Brandon Edwards, VP of Product (and newly Christened Pwnie Award judge) Kelly Shortridge and Research Scientist, Nick Freeman will be in attendance, talking with folks about the latest cloud native trends as well as developments and issues in container and cloud production system security.
