(ISC)² Secure Events are a series of seminars that provide continuing education for our members - cyber, information, software and infrastructure security professionals - on the issues and challenges the industry faces today, and what may loom on the horizon. These events are typically held in one day in various cities across North America.  Secure Events give our members a unique, first-hand experience on emerging issues with engaging speakers, arming them with the latest information on current trends and hot-button topics as well as the opportunity to automatically earn CPEs. Members, as well as our sponsors, inform us that Secure Events are invaluable for networking, learning, and ensuring continued value within the roles that they deliver.  Certification is just the beginning, and we rely upon experts to help keep our members educated and informed. 
  
If you are a proven speaker in this field and offer valuable knowledge and subject matter expertise across cyber, information, software and infrastructure security arena that will help our members, we invite you to share your expertise and join our community.
