InfoSec World Conference & Expo 2014
April 7-9, 2014
Expo Dates: April 7&8
Disney's Contemporary Resort

We are putting together a dynamic program that will cover the most relevant issues security professionals are facing, and we're looking for experienced speakers to present on a variety of topics (listed below). Speaking at InfoSec World is an incredible opportunity to showcase your knowledge in the information security space, align yourself with other industry luminaries, and network with over 1,200 attendees plus sponsoring companies within the security community.

The CFP is open through Friday, July 12, 2013. We receive a large volume of submissions, so the InfoSec World Advisory Board will begin reviewing all proposals immediately and are unable to accept late submissions. Anyone who submits a completed proposal will receive a response by Monday, August 5. We provide all accepted speakers with complimentary conference admission, along with two colleague passes to the main conference. If we are unable to accept you submission this year, the primary speaker listed on the submission will receive a special discount code, as we hope that you will still join us for the conference!

As you put together your submission, please keep in mind that our audience looks for real-world solutions to real-world problems. No proposal from a vendor organization related to its product/s will be considered. Accepted session titles and abstracts will be used for printed materials and on the InfoSec World website, so it is best to develop these with the attendee in mind and think of what would get them interested and excited to attend your session.

The MIS Team hopes to see you in Orlando as a speaker or an attendee! If you have any questions during the CFP process, please contact:

Director, Conference Division at MIS Training Institute
