Registration Fee: $50
50% Off Student Discount Code: StudentGRC2026

CPE: 7 CPEs

Location:
📍 Feather Sound Country Club
2201 Feather Sound Dr, Clearwater, FL 33762
(Ball Room & Pool Room Dual Tracks)

Who Should Attend?

• DevSecOps & Platform Engineers implementing CI/CD pipelines, code scanners, and policy-as-code
• Cloud & IAM Architects managing machine identities, service principals, and privilege boundaries
• CISOs, CIOs, and IT Directors needing to align software delivery speed with enterprise risk posture
• GRC & Compliance Leaders responsible for continuous audit readiness and automated compliance
• Developers & Software Engineers integrating AI into modern development toolchains

As organizations push to ship faster and embed AI across their technology stacks, the pipeline is where risk and velocity collide. Ensuring security, compliance, and governance can no longer happen at the end of the development cycle...it must be embedded directly into automated Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Deployment (CD) pipelines, identity architectures, and board-level risk strategy.
