AISA Sydney Branch Virtual Social Lunch Meeting
Do you miss networking with colleagues? Every year around this time the Sydney Branch Committee organises a social get together for its members. This year the Committee has been working on a COVID-safe way to hold its annual social event for members.
Join us for jam-packed line up being held as an online Zoom meeting on Tuesday 27 October at 12pm (AEDT) which includes the following:
- An engaging presentation from US based speaker, Jeff Aboud on How to evolve to Risk-Based Vulnerability Management;
- A lively panel discussion on What's all the hype about automation and is it threating our jobs? with panellists Aaron Eisler, Telstra; Aatef Khayat, Dragonfly and Alvin Rodriguez, Infoblox;
- The opportunity to see each other; breakout into chat rooms and network with other peers;
- AND you also have the chance to win an UberEats voucher valued at $25 with which you can enjoy while at the lunch meeting!
We are giving away $25 UberEats vouchers to the first 200 NSW AISA financial members who register. These will be issued on a first come, first served basis and are courtesy of our generous sponsors Tenable, Infoblox and Dragonfly Technologies.
Please note that the format of this event is a Zoom meeting which will allow all attendees to see each other (if video function activated), but all participants will be muted to allow only the presenters to speak. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions after the presentations, AND chat and network with other AISA members online. An email with the link to join the meeting will be issued at least 24 hours prior to the session. UberEats voucher will also be issued in the same manner.
We encourage you to register early and we look forward to seeing as many members as possible at this exciting virtual lunch event!
