TechForum's mission is to bring together colleagues who are facing similar challenges so they can explore together effective solutions based on real-world implementations. At Security Forum, Fortune 500 security managers, along with solution providers, provide an in-depth look at security metrics and present examples and case studies to show how their corporations are valuing data and measuring the effectiveness of their security practices; explore how organizations are developing a secure infrastructure for e-business transactions; and discuss how business managers, data architects, developers, infrastructure and data center groups are collaborating to create effective IT security for their companies.

• Case study implementations from Fortune 500 end-user IT managers: Instead of giving a soapbox to analysts who spout research but have never had to implement the solutions they tout, Security Forum features practicing end-user IT managers from the Fortune 500 companies as its panelists who've been in the trenches. You'll hear about their successes--and their failures. You'll gain insight into the implementation problems they encountered, and how they solved them (or didn't). You'll even hear an argument--or two! What you won't hear is the usual hype-without-substance that pretty much characterizes every other conference out there. Speakers share their experience managing and implementing these solutions--and no-holds barred, because we don't allow press at our events.
• Only end-user IT managers. No press, analysts, or consultants allowed: TechForum vets each attendee personally, and allows no walk-ins to its events. All registrants must be senior end user IT managers are mid to large firms. And even our vendor speakers are encouraged to give examples instead of product pitches. We do not allow press coverage of our events and no webcasts are employed. This is to ensure the most honest and effective dialogue possible.
• Pre-vetted material: Vendor presentations are vetted beforehand to make sure they are applicable to our audience and provide useful material for IT managers. There are no product demonstrations. All TechForum conference speakers are asked to discuss their own experiences in developing competitive and secure infrastructures. You'll hear real-world examples and case studies from your peers who have actually implemented the technology they are speaking about.
  

Because all of TechForum events are for the benefit of the IT manager at mid- to- large companies, all of our events are open only to sponsors, and practicing end user IT managers at mid to large companies. That means: no job seekers, no consultants, no analysts, no press. Unless you are a sponsor of our events (click here for more on sponsorship), our events are open only to TechForum members or currently employed IT managers at mid-to-large firms. See our full list of requirements for attendance below for more on who is eligible to attend our events.
