Call for Presenters Information

InfoSec World is the “business of security” conference. To manage today’s threats, security practitioners—from entry-level admins to senior leadership—must have the skills to be both a business partner and business enabler as well as the technical skills to prevent, detect, and respond to security challenges.

For our 2020 event, we are looking for presenters and facilitators to cover topics addressing these themes:

  • Cloud
  • Disruptive Technologies (IoT, AI, Blockchain, etc.)
  • Emerging Trends
  • Hackers & Threats
  • Infrastructure & Operations
  • Leadership, Management & Strategies
  • Privacy & Risk
  • Security Awareness & Training

Alternative session formats such as facilitating a Security Roundtable, conducting Half-day and Full-day Workshops, and delivering Ted-style talks are available.
