Registration is Open for the ASIS 23rd New York City Security Conference and Expo

Host of the Security Conference and Expo, the ASIS New York City Chapter has over 1,600 members in the New York metropolitan area. This is the chapter’s annual event, combining education and networking opportunities, and providing direct access to suppliers of innovative security products and services. A diverse audience, including security management and law enforcement professionals, systems integrators, dealers, and distributors attend each year.

This year marks the 23rd anniversary for this event and welcomes two, IT-centric conferences and exhibitions— the Computer Forensic Show and CyBit. The co-located events, set for Wednesday, May 8 through Thursday, May 9, 2013 at the Jacob K. Javits Center in New York, NY, are anticipated to draw more than 2,500 traditional and IT security practitioners.

This chapter will once again present its Person of the Year Award to honor an individual who has made a significant contribution to the security industry at a ticketed luncheon on May 9, 2013. This year’s honoree will be announced at a future date.

The Computer Forensics Show, now in its 7th year, will provide attendees with information on the latest technological advancements, ideas, and practical information available today in the field of investigations and computer forensics science. Education sessions and exhibits will also be featured.

CyBit will make its debut in New York City this year and will focus on aspects of IT and cyber security. Education sessions and exhibits will offer attendees key knowledge in the interdependent network of information technology infrastructures including the internet, telecommunications networks, as well as information security applications and processes including securing networks and allied infrastructure, applications, and databases.

Registration for the Computer Forensics Show (www.computerforensicshow.com) and CyBit (www.cybitexpo.com) will open Monday, February 4, 2013.

All conference sessions and exhibits will be open to registrants of each co-located event. ASIS board-certified attendees can earn credits toward recertification by attending the conference sessions and expo.
