SecTalks is one of the world’s largest non-profit Cyber Security communities, with chapters spanning multiple continents. We host free monthly events focused on technical security topics and practical security challenges. Our sessions are designed for a broad audience, from those just starting out through to experienced professionals.

#### Who is the meetup for?

SecTalks is a community-focused event, not a sales forum. It is not the place to attend with the intention of promoting products or services.

SecTalks Gold Coast is run by volunteers, including Paula Sillars, Paul McCarty, Michael Skelton (@Codingo), and Ricki Burke (@CyberSecRicki), for the benefit of the local community. Our goal is to create a welcoming environment where people can share ideas, learn from one another, and build connections.
