The theme for this year’s RSA Conference, which our podcast guests are going to tell us all about, is one that's right up our alley here on ITSPmagazine—The Human Element. And, there's a lot going on during the week of RSAC, all designed to help educate and connect the InfoSec professional and community as they look to arm themselves to be successful in their roles and happy and healthy in their InfoSec lives.

The value of face-to-face conferences are designed to bring people together so they can make connections with the rest of the community didn’t go unnoticed by this year’s RSA Conference organizers. This was something that was really top of mind for them as they defined the conference to offer a more personalized experience for the attendees in many creative ways. As we discuss these attributes with our guests—Linda Gray Martin and Britta Glade—we also get additional insights from them regarding what the conference attendees should expect, including:

  • Some keynote session picks

  • Some Learning Lab picks

  • What the Engagement Zone is all about

  • College Day and other programs for students of nearly all ages

And it’s going to be an epic year—check out some of these stats:

  • Expect to mingle ~43,000 attendees over the course of the five days

  • Roughly 500 sessions

  • Nearly 700 speakers

  • Approximately 700 exhibitors

  • A multitude of different learning experiences, networking opportunities, and special events

So, what are you waiting for? Have a listen to Linda and Britta to learn more—then join us and the rest of the community in San Francisco.

See you there!
