Ransom-ISAC Threat Summit — June 10, 2026
Ransom-ISAC Threat Summit
On June 10th, 2026, Ransom-ISAC will host its first virtual conference — bringing together practitioners from our network to share real cases, findings, and live demonstrations on ransomware threats and defense.
This isn't a vendor showcase. Speakers are people doing the work — incident responders, threat researchers, and analysts with something worth saying. Expect honest conversations, practical takeaways, and the kind of knowledge that only comes from being in the room when things go wrong.
