SC Awards U.S.
As part of the IT security industry's leading global awards program, the SC Awards U.S. was organized to honor the professionals, companies and products that help fend off the myriad security threats confronted in today's corporate world.
SC Awards homes in on the achievements of the guys and gals in the trenches, the innovations happening in the vendor and service provider communities, and the passionate work of government, commercial and nonprofits working to help the industry.
Now in its 13th year, the SC Awards continues to gain momentum. With over 650 nominations last year, we expect these numbers to continue to increase as the demand for security grows. With 31 categories, there is a place for everyone to display their products and services which affect IT security today.
SC Congress Canada and SC Congress NY
We'll be posting a number of keynotes and sessions recorded at SC World Congress to a brand new section of the site, SCWC 24/7. An online community for information security pros, this virtual environment offers up loads of advice and guidance on how to thwart cyberthieves who take advantage of the countless vulnerabilities that plague all organizations' networks. In addition to audio and video recordings from SC World Congress, as well as other materials shared during last month's live conference and expo, we also will host a virtual event on SCWC 24/7 each month, which will be focused around a pertinent subject that you, as an IT security professional, face on a regular basis. This is a completely free, content-rich offering to keep you informed of the newest developments in the industry -- that is, until next year's SC Congress hits New York City for its third year running.
