ISSA-COS Members,,

If it’s September then it must be time for the Peak Cyber symposium! As you read this newsletter, the symposium will be wrapping up on another successful year of keynote speakers, amazing presentations, numerous training sessions, and one incredible Capture-the-Flag (CTF) challenge. By all accounts, the Peak Cyber symposium has become one of the largest annual Cybersecurity events in all of Colorado Springs. This year alone, 100+ people participated in the CTF challenge sponsored and facilitated by Splunk>. This represents a 4-fold increase in participation compared to last year! Overall attendance for the symposium pushed 450 people making this year the largest event in recent years. THANK YOU to all our direct sponsors (Murray Security Services, Handshake Leadership, Splunk>, AWS, and Jacobs), community partners(COS Chamber & EDC, SBDC, NCC, AFCEA-RMC, (ISC)2 – PP, PPCC, and ERAU), chapter members, and volunteers for helping make this event such a great one! ...MORE
