Discover YOUR Cyber Pathway 

Cybersecurity isn’t one-size-fits-all. With over 50 different specialties (thanks, NICE!), it’s a field that needs a wide range of skills and talents. If you're still figuring out where you fit in—don’t sweat it. We’re here to help you find your place! We'll break down key job roles and get real about what’s awesome, what’s tough, and everything in between. 

The best part? Every speaker you’ll hear from has been right where you are, standing at the start of their journey. Whether they’ve got a few years under their belt or decades of experience, they’re ready to share their wins, struggles, and the best advice they’ve got to help you succeed. 

Bonus Alert: By registering, you’ll also get exclusive access to the SANS Summit Slack Workspace! That means you can connect with speakers and fellow attendees, ask your burning questions, and dive deeper into all the great info shared during the event.
