ISC West 2023, taking place at the Venetian Expo in Las Vegas, has plenty to consider aside from a full slate of SIA Education@ISC (March 28-30) and traipsing across the exhibition hall (March 29-31). As you scope out a daily itinerary, here are a handful of programs and activities to consider.

The annual Foundation for Advancing Security Talent (FAST) golf tournament on March 28 will allow industry professionals to network and golf as they support vital industry initiatives.
