S4 is …

Optimistic … Forward Looking … Creative … Driving Change

Set free a conservative, slow moving, change resistant community to discover new ideas and come up with innovative ways to use these new ideas to deploy secure, resilient and better ICS.

After a Covid caused cancellation of S4x21, S4 came roaring back with a record 800 attendees and warmth of spirit at S4x22. S4x23 in February sold out with 1,100 attendees, and this will be the attendee limit for S4x24. More important than the numbers were the percentage of new and diverse talent we are seeing and the spirit that has been maintained at S4 despite the growth from 40 people in a small room in 2007.

The best way to understand how S4 is different is to come to the event. The second best way is to ask someone who has attended, obviously we are biased. S4 is not for everyone. If you are an early adopter, like to be on the leading edge, or enjoy hearing, considering and creating new ideas, then there is a good chance S4 will be a great event for you.

The fun and experiences at S4 are made possible with the help of the sponsors on this page. All Sponsor Packages are sold out. We will make Women In ICS Security Sponsor Packages available in November, and we may have some signage-only packages available in December (although existing sponsors will have first rights to these).

S4 Prime Sponsors

S4 Prime Sponsor rooms will be open Monday – Thursday one floor up from the stages for demos, sessions, experiences and fun.

Cabana Session Sponsors

On Wednesday we spend the afternoon around the Surfcomber pool for the Cabana Sessions. It’s our version of an exhibit hall, just a lot more fun and in beautiful weather. The sponsors show their stuff and there is food, drink and a lot of creative activities. The Cabana Sessions are a great way to establish and deepen relationships with your peers.
