FIRST ANNUAL SOC ANALYST APPRECIATION DAY
October 20, 2021 | Online
SOC analysts are often under-appreciated — that’s about to change!
Their contribution to the fight against cyber criminals and security threat is undeniable and yet they role is one of those that doesn’t get the spotlight and is not appreciated as much as it should.
ITSPmagazine is proud to join Devo in supporting this initiative and contribute with a few podcast leading to the event and the live panel “A Day In The Life Of A SOC Analyst” during the streaming. Join us as we look at the profession from different perspective as we talk with a CISO, a SOC manager, and two analysts.
This will be a five hours of live streamed content dedicated to this profession, with sessions ranging from what skills are needed to move up in the SOC, to desk decompression from a yoga instructor, to the panel discussion about a day in the life of a SOC, to a "Lunch & Laugh" where a stand-up comedian will provide some much-needed de-stressing entertainment. There’s a ton to celebrate and we want to make this a yearly event — or even better a day that will make us value this role 365 days / year — come on, let’s do this!
There will be opportunities to win prizes and join in a social dialogue about the challenges of SOC work
