“ I met a lot of great people and the table-top at the end
was solid. Looking forward to more of these events.”

The recent June 18 and 19 H-ISAC Security workshop in Buffalo, New York was a great event overall. The engaging content presented inspired many questions from participants following each presentation. The exercise on the second day was very interactive. Attendees told event staff how much they enjoyed and learned from it.
