CYBERWARCON is a one-day conference in Arlington, VA focused on the specter of destruction, disruption, and malicious influence on our society through cyber capabilities. CYBERWARCON is not a hacker conference, or an ICS conference, or an international policy conference. The central purpose of this conference is to identify and explore threats. Participants and attendees come from a spectrum of backgrounds including the military and government, academia, the media, and the private sector.
“In so many ways, this conference has influenced the course of my career and I’m eternally grateful for the community it has provided”
“The talks are great so far, but the biggest highlight is that #CYBERWARCON has the best mix of attendees I’ve seen in a long while”
