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

A lighter week in Seattle before a busy November. Thursday's Open Hack Night at Black Lodge Research is the one I would go to, a free, hands on evening with people who build and break things for the love of it. On Wednesday the GRC happy hour at Flatstick Pub in South Lake Union is a relaxed way to meet risk and compliance peers.

SecureWorld Seattle is November 4, so this is the week to register if you plan to go.
