It is held in Chicago, Illinois.
The organizer identifies CISOs and C-level peers as the audience.
It is most useful for sitting CISOs in the Chicago region who want candid exchange with peers, since it is a one-day local meeting with an agenda shaped by a CISO governing body and speakers including the State Farm CISO and Elastic's deputy CISO alongside a Gartner analyst. Security practitioners below the CISO level, or anyone wanting a broad vendor exhibit, would get less from it, because the audience is C-level peers and the sponsors are a small set including Elastic, Wheels and Concentric AI.
Security executives at Gartner summits usually wear business casual, such as a blazer with open collar or slacks, rather than full suits.
