IT’S A BIG, BOLD, BEAUTIFUL 2024 – OUR 12TH ANNIVERSARY
We’re celebrating this milestone every day this year in different, exciting and creative ways.
We’re expanding our teams, platforms and have BIG goals between now and 2025. In fact, we’ve just launched the Cyber Defense Genius™, which is now available on our home page at https://www.cyberdefensemagazine.com/. It is trained to provide information on a wide range of infosec subjects from reading all 12 years of Cyber Defense Magazine (16,500+ pages of content and growing daily). It does not hallucinate like other AI GPT solutions and fact checks answers.
Starting here: https://www.cisoconference.com
When our tiny team began our journey at Cyber Defense Media Group (CDMG) together in January 2012, we were happy to help smaller, lesser-known innovators of infosec, get their message out there and Rise Above the noise. Now, after 12 years, we’re even helping multi-billion dollar companies and governments around the globe with our offices in D.C., London, N.Y. and other locations in play, as we continue to scale, thanks to you – our readers, listeners, viewers and media partners.
There have been many UP’s but never any down’s at CDMG (except, while we are cyber and social engineering attacked daily, only 1 hour of what we thought was DDoS attack aimed at our magazine’s site unavailability actually turned out to be growing pains due to our traffic doubling on one day during RSAC 2020, an inflection point in our company history). The lesson here is on balancing security with availability for scalability.
We’ve been blessed to build the following platforms over these years, thanks to all of those of you who have and continue to support our mission:
- Cyber Defense Awards – Semi-Annual Prestigious Awards
- Cyber Defense Conferences – First in-person, intimate Top Global CISOs and Top InfoSec Innovators meet up – training, networking and fun.

In 2024, with more than a decade of operations and steady growth, we’re continuing to grow and develop these multiple platforms based on over 16,500 pages of InfoSec knowledge, developed by hundreds of the best and brightest sources in the IT, Cybersecurity and Regulatory compliance arena. Some of our experts are CEOs, CTOs, CIOs, CISOs, Network Administrators and IT Staff in all major vertical markets – from Governments to Financial, Insurance, Healthcare, Education to Manufacturing and Critical Infrastructure. We’re proud to be an ethical, passionate, honest, caring & inclusive, carbon negative enterprise.

Results should be outstanding.
