EDGE2016 Now Seeking Sponsors for Annual Cybersecurity Conference

Keynote speakers at the conference include Theresa Payton, former White House CIO, cybersecurity authority and expert on identity theft and the Internet of Things (IoT); and Kevin Poulsen, a former hacker once wanted by the FBI turned cyber security expert and currently the editor at Wired magazine.

"We are in a unique position to offer a world-class IT security conference, not just for IT professionals, but for C-level executives and business owners who have the authority to institute change within their organization," said John McNeely, president of Sword & Shield Enterprise Security, the IT security firm hosting EDGE2016. "Cyber security is on everyone's mind, and if it isn't, it should be. We want to take the conversation of data security and move it toward action. To do that, we are looking to partner with companies who want to advance the IT security industry through innovation and collaboration."

Current sponsors for EDGE2016 include Avnet, Barracuda, CHATECH, Forcepoint, Kaspersky Lab, Tenable Network Security, and Trend Micro.

Premium sponsorships packages offer a variety of options, including speaking opportunities in the general sessions, complimentary EDGE2016 passes, and brand recognition and awareness before, during and after the conference. Additionally, sponsors will receive a 10 percent discount on EDGE2016 passes that can be distributed to their customers and prospects.

"There are opportunities for every price point to get involved with EDGE2016," said McNeely. "From our exclusive After Hours 'Create-Your-Own-Event' reception to lunch and industry panel sponsorships, we're providing as many options as possible for our sponsors to network, engage and interact with attendees."
