Global Cyber Security Initiative (GCSI), in partnership with the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT), Pan Asian American Business council (PAABC) and Convex Legal LLC are hosting the 2019 GCSI Cybersecurity Conference.

We will host our GCSI conference from 9am to 6pm, Wednesday, November 13 at Chicago – Kent College of Law, 565 W. Adams St., Chicago.

The conference begins with a Keynote speach and a panel discussion showcasing innovative solutions to the problems facing highly regulated industries. We are bringing more than 100 cybersecurity leaders, Senior Executives, C-Level Executives, CISOs, Compliance Specialists, and Security Officers for sessions focused on Cyber Security Planning, Strategy, Risk & Budgeting.

GCSI was organized in October 2016 to address the SEC and FINRA’s annual areas of concern for their member firms. Since then, GCSI expanded to include topics, such as controlling your cyber security budget and how to discreetly hire a CISO.

The GCSI expanded its focus to assist all highly regulated industries, including healthcare, insurance, finance, etc. Each month, we host events that bring together executives to discuss topics such as cybersecurity insurance, human engineering and more.
