Digital Fight Club: Cyber returns to DFW with a national event featuring fighters and refs from around the US.

Tired of hearing the same ‘ol same ‘ol at cybersecurity conferences? Tired of being kissed up to or not being able to speak your mind in a proposal?

So are we.

Come see the nation’s top Cyber leaders spar on topic chosen by the top CISOs in Cyber today.

BONUS: By popular demand, we’ve added a special 5th fight for two lucky cyber tech vendors to go at it. Yes, it’s a sponsorship level and NO, it’s not pay for play (speaking sponsors usually don’t get heckled, right?)

This DFC: Cyber we teamed up with The Professional CISO . David Malicoat will be broadcasting a reaction show at the After Party.
