The next edition, Columbus Cybersecurity Conference 2027, is scheduled for Thursday, October 7, 2027, in Columbus, OH.

Columbus Cybersecurity Conference 2026 took place on Thursday, October 15, 2026.

It was held at The Makoy, 5462 Center St., Hilliard, OH 43026.

The organizer identifies C-suite executives, CISOs, and IT security professionals in the Columbus region as its audience.

It was a practical one-day option for security leaders and IT security staff in the Columbus region who needed CPE credit and wanted to hear how peers handled attacks, given the panel of C-level executives and the keynote from ReynCon founder Connie Matthews Reynolds. Practitioners seeking deep hands-on technical training would have gotten less from a single day of presentations, and the long sponsor list of enterprises and security vendors made it more of a networking and vendor-demo event than a research forum.

Attendees at cybersecurity conferences attended by executives usually wear business casual, and some C-suite and public sector guests wear suits.
