At CISO XC, our journey began with events in our home base of DFW, bringing together cybersecurity leaders to foster connection, learning, and giving back. Those early gatherings set the tone for what we stand for — a trusted community where relationships thrive and leaders can share, grow, and collaborate.

​

Since then, we’ve expanded into new cities, including Austin and Chicago, while staying true to our pillars of community, philanthropy, and leadership. With every event, we continue to raise the bar, creating spaces where security professionals can connect meaningfully and support causes that matter.

​

We’re proud of where we started and even more excited about where we’re going — and we’re grateful to all who’ve been part of the journey so far.
