The NWA Information Security Meetup (NWAInfoSec) is a monthly meet up assembling top talent from the Northwest Arkansas region and beyond to cover the latest developments in InfoSec. Topics include enterprise cyber security, mobile computing, network and endpoint security, and security policy including governance and compliance. Meetings typically consist of a featured speaker, demos by vetted security vendors, panel discussions, hands-on workshops, and the profession's top networking opportunity. InfoSec occupies the front pages of news sites too often and as such firms are embracing new technologies to safeguard sensitive account and IoT system access.
