RSAC EXHIBITOR AND PARTNER QUOTES:
"This year's RSA Conference proved once again to be a fantastic event
for CrowdStrike. Our booth has been filled each day and we have forged
lasting connections with our customers, partners and prospects. We were
thrilled to have also taken part in the newly expanded Keynote program
on the South Stage. As one of the premier annual cybersecurity events,
RSAC enables the security community to come together and present the
latest approaches, technologies, and strategies that drive progress in
the industry. We are already excited for next year's conference!"
"The RSA Conference provides a great forum for the cybersecurity
industry to discuss tough questions. One such question confronting this
year's RSAC audience is whether we're looking at AI objectively and
honestly. As with other technologies, we must recognize AI's limitations
as well as its potential, and also fully understand how its capabilities
are very likely already being used against us by our adversaries. The
RSA Conference gives us an opportunity to challenge each other to be
intellectually honest about these questions."
"At this year's RSA Conference, attendees were exposed to even more
opportunities for awareness and engagement. For the International
Association of Privacy Professionals, it was especially great to be part
of so many conversations around information privacy and our
responsibility to protect and create trust in the digital economy. Roles
of security and privacy professionals have never been more intertwined,
especially in 2019 as we face the CCPA, proposed state privacy bills, a
number of federal bills in incubation, GDPR fines and more - all
creating an increased need for education about privacy and risk for
organizations. Events like RSAC provide us with the opportunity to
educate the industry and foster debate on complex, ethical and
competitive imperatives associated with the tough job of privacy." RSA CONFERENCE ONLINE
