Reasons to Attend
It's custom tailored. For a smaller, more intimate conference, CSI SX has an enormous program. Dozens of in-depth security sessions, panels, and more. You can build exactly the program you need, whether you're a seasoned hand or just getting started with security.
It's interactive-and fun. From the Security Soapbox Derby, where you 'speed-pitch' your ideas (or join the listening group), to Practical labs where you apply what you just learned, to role-playing to hone your forensics interview skills, you'll spend plenty of time putting your new knowledge into practice and getting to know your colleagues in the process.
It's on video. Since you can't be in five places at once, all attendees will have advance access to brief executive summary videos of all SX sessions. Not only will the summaries help you decide which session to head to onsite, they'll give you a condensed version of the entire conference.
You can actually network. Know how you always bring all those business cards to other events but don't really meet anyone? CSI SX is large enough to allow for a healthy exchange of ideas, but small and friendly enough so that you're able to make contacts and expand your network.
It's in Vegas with Interop. CSI SX is co-located with Interop, the leading IT business technology event and Software 2008, giving you access to the Interop Exhibition of over 500 exhibitors (and over 100 security exhibitors), and the opportunity to attend the Interop and Software 2008 conferences. And, did we mention it's in Vegas?
