I went to the Cybersecurity Summit at the Phoenician, which is in Scottsdale. It’s not my first time at this venue. It’s pretty snazzy. The thing is though, that to get there “on time” I had to sit in about an hour and half of traffic. I’m so glad that I work remotely because if I had to go into the office daily at 8 AM, I would really hate it.
I haven’t had to drive on the freeway for morning commute in over 10 years, and believe me, I don’t miss it at all!
The conference was okay. I met some friends there who were in it for the CPEs and I was more there just to hang out (and also collect additional CPEs). For what it was, it was okay. They fed us, and caffeinated us, so we could be attentive. And I got some more free vendor shit that I don’t really need.
