What we’re about

Sister Meetups: 
Los Angeles Cyber Security Meetup

WHO ARE WE?
This group is for Bay Area security enthusiasts, security professionals, and technology professionals who want to learn, network and share their knowledge. Our goal is to get technologists interested in cyber security and share resources about the latest in information security, threat intelligence, and incident response.

JULY 2021 UPDATE:

Our meetups will now be of a hybrid attendance model. When we start to have in-person meetups again, pending a meeting location, the meetups will still be streamed for online attendance. For months that we do not have a physical location for the monthly meetup, we will still have the meetup virtually.
