About this Event

Cyber Security: “The OMFG Report” & What Software Developers Need to Know

The past year has been like no other in cyber security and our panel of experts will discuss what is going on out there, how the bad guys are doing it and what we need to know to stay safe. The discussion will start with war stories from the field and then how hackers are penetrating the software supply chain. This is what software developers must know if they want to sell their software to large enterprises.

Please join us for our last online forum for the 2020/2021 program season.

Ticket Pricing: 

For this event we have made a “pay what you want” model.

We have elected to add three ticket prices for our events: for each of our general admission and ‘Founder’ tickets, we will add a “virtual discount” of roughly 50% that you can select to recognize the shortcomings of a virtual rather than in-person event. We have created a zero-cost ticket for those who wish to rely on the support of their community. And we will maintain our existing ticket prices for those who wish to fully support our not-for-profit. Learn more.

This event is being delivered by New Ventures BC.
