We're hitting the road. The Defenders Tour brings intensive, hands-on security workshops directly to practitioners in major cities worldwide…no panels, no fluff, just real technical work.

Why We're Doing This

Our community is hungry for practical, technical content. Security engineers want to build actual detection rules, create working automation, and walk away with skills they can unleash Monday morning. Conference talks are fine, but nothing beats rolling up your sleeves with real tools and real data.

What You'll Build

Each workshop features focused sessions:

  • Email Threat Hunting with Sublime: Hunt modern threats like HTML smuggling and QR code phishing, build production-ready detection rules

  • Scalable Security with LimaCharlie: Build detection and response rules from scratch, consolidate your security stack using our SecOps Cloud Platform

  • Security Automation with Tines: Create no-code playbooks that reduce analyst workload and accelerate response times

  • Threat Intelligence Integration with SOCRadar: Enhance detection capabilities by integrating contextual threat feeds into your security stack to proactively defend against emerging attacks

You'll work with actual threat data and leave with implementation-ready automation playbooks.

The Tour Schedule

We're bringing these workshops to security communities across the globe:

Each workshop includes lunch and networking time because some of the best learning happens in conversations with peers who've faced the same battles.

Who Should Attend

These workshops are designed for seasoned security engineers from enterprise SOCs and MSSPs. We're keeping groups small to ensure everyone gets hands-on time with the tools and direct access to our technical experts.

Our Partners

The tour is powered by LimaCharlie, Sublime, Tines, and SOCRadar - companies building the tools that drive modern security operations.

Space is limited at each venue. If you want practical skills you can implement immediately, register now to secure your spot.
