The week of October 26 to November 1 · 4 events in Dallas · Read online

A busy week in Dallas with something for leaders and auditors alike. For security leaders, Thursday's CyberRisk Leadership Exchange at the Sheraton is a full day of peer conversation, and Monday's IIA Dallas Super Conference is the pick for internal and IT auditors. GuidePoint's GPSEC forum is the same Thursday if you would rather hear from partners.

BSidesDFW is November 7, and it is one of my favorite community days of the year.
