CISO Speakeasy at Black Hat 2026

Kick off Black Hat with great company and real, unfiltered conversations.🥃 The AI Speakeasy: Off-the-Record at Black Hat Psst... we've reserved a table behind the hidden door. Join us at the 1923 Private Live Lounge at the Venetian for an evening of cocktails, connections, and confidential conversations with fellow security leaders. Think of it as a support group for people responsible for securing things they didn't approve, can't fully see, and somehow still own. House Rules:🥃 What happens in the speakeasy stays in the speakeasy.🤖 AI confessions are encouraged.🚨 Nobody is allowed to say "single pane of glass" or "reduce alert fatigue" The odds of shadow AI being in your organization are better than the odds of hitting a jackpot on the Strip. The odds of your analysts actually getting ahead of the queue? About the same. Fortunately, the cocktails are easier to find than either.
