Hello, Vegas

Another successful ISC West is in the books.

Yesterday, the exhibit floor opened up at ISC West. After an amazing keynote, some great opening ceremonies, and listening to a marching band that was on point, attendees knew that this year was going to be top notch.

While checking out various booths and speaking to exhibitors, you couldn't help but feel the excitement around the show. Everyone was commenting on the amount of people that were there, and how great it'd been to have a constant stream of interested parties stopping by their booths.

As I stopped by a few booths, some exhibits were so busy that you had to stand shoulder to shoulder to people as you talked or watched a demo. What an exciting thing to witness for the security industry.

Amid all hectic excitement at ISC West, I did get a chance to sit down and speak with a few companies about their products and what they were showing while in Vegas. I'm always so happy to have conversations with people who are genuinely passionate about their work. It's inspiring.

One booth I visited yesterday was Rajant, a company that offers a kinetic mesh network that helps secure your sensitive information online. This is relevant and available for just about every sector in the industry, such as oil and gas, government, military, transportation and utilities.
