mWISE 2024 is on the move!

mWISE 2024 (Mandiant Worldwide Information Security Exchange) is heading to Denver, Colorado from September 18–19. A new, more central location but our goal is the same: gather leading security experts to share knowledge and intel, and to address the greatest cyber threats and challenges our industry faces.

mWISE is open to the security community at large — bringing industry, government and academia together to discuss and understand today’s landscape and identify the threats on the horizon. And program content is guided by an open call for speakers with an agenda curated by selections from an independent committee of industry practitioners.

CALL FOR SPEAKERS IS NOW CLOSED.

Thanks to the community for its support and participation in our 2024 Call for Speakers! Our independent program committee will be reviewing all submissions and curating an exciting agenda for you. Notifications will go out in June.

Visit our event site – registration is now open – to stay abreast of all things mWISE!
