Security conferences at this scale reward attendees who arrive with a specific goal, whether that is particular sessions, CPE credit, or vendor meetings. Large expo-driven events can feel overwhelming on day one, so mapping out priority sessions and booths in advance tends to pay off.
Business-casual attire is the safe default for most security-industry conferences. Comfortable, broken-in shoes help across a multi-day expo floor, and it is worth checking the event's own FAQ close to the date for any dress-code specifics.
