Very well organized summit, attended by high-level professionals who collaborated to quality discussions even during networking breaks. This year's topics and speakers were also excellent.

Best conference I've attended recently. Excellent quality of speakers - very experienced professionals from respected enterprises- and the selection and approach to cybersecurity topics was spot on. I've collected lots of valuable insights to take away with me and put into practice.

Everybody who is anybody in the ICS Security realm is represented here on the vendor floor today – everyone is doing really unique and cutting-edge things and it’s a great place to be educated.

Excellent event to meet with people with the same expertise and challenges, and to find out things about best practices in ICS cyber security. I found the topics of AI in cyber security and secure remote access in ICS some of the most useful. Recommended.

Excellent summit - interesting to see that the cybersecurity issues I face are the same as those of other companies and industries represented. It was great to realize this over roundtable discussions and informal chats during networks. I learned a lot!
