Society of Cybersecurity Professionals

Connect. Learn. Defend. Together.

Power In Partnership

This is a new, free-to-join, and invite-only LinkedIn community for cybersecurity professionals—practitioners, auditors, analysts, educators, and leaders—built around practical exchange and professional standards. Early days means the post history is still thin, but the intent is clear: signal over noise. We’re curating threads on detections that actually reduced alerts, control mappings that passed audits, incident retros with redactions, secure SDLC patterns that shipped, privacy tradeoffs that worked, and metrics that influenced decisions. If you value clarity, rigor, and outcomes, you’ll feel at home.

As we grow, we’re inviting members who will help set the tone: post a short lesson learned, share a template or checklist, ask a focused question with context, or summarize a recent audit or response (sanitized). No spam, no scraping, no off-topic promotion—respect confidentiality and credit the work. Membership is application-based to keep the signal high; once approved, you’ll see curated resources, low-noise hiring threads, and professionally moderated discussions. If you want to be part of the founding cohort, apply to join and help shape the standard.

Frequently asked questions

Who can sign up to be a Cyber Talk presenter?

You don’t need to be a company. Individuals, consultants, founders, practitioners, academics, and small teams are all welcome—as long as you have real-world experience and something useful to share.

What kinds of topics are you looking for?

We want practical, real-world cyber conversations: incidents you’ve handled, lessons learned, GRC and risk challenges, leadership stories, career journeys, “how we actually did this,” and hard problems you’re working on. Tools and frameworks are fine, but the focus should be on problems and outcomes.

Do I need to work for a big brand or vendor?

No. Big names are welcome, but so are solo practitioners, small firms, and in-house pros. We care more about the quality of the conversation than the logo on your slide.

Do I need to have slides?

Slides are optional. Many great Cyber Talks are just conversations. If slides help you tell the story—use them. If not, we’re happy with a live discussion or simple visual aids.

How long is a Cyber Talk session?

Most sessions run about 30–45 minutes, including discussion. If your topic needs a different format, mention that when you apply and we’ll see what fits.

Do I need previous speaking experience?

No formal speaking experience is required. If you can explain what you do and why it matters, we can help with structure, flow, and questions.

Will the session be recorded and shared?

Yes. Cyber Talks sessions are recorded and may be shared on LinkedIn and other channels so the community can watch on their own time. By signing up, you agree to be recorded and for the content to be reused for promotion.

Can I propose more than one topic?

Absolutely. If you have several ideas, list them in your application. We may start with one and save others for future sessions.

What do I need technically to present?

A stable internet connection, a decent microphone and webcam, and a quiet space. We’ll handle the platform and scheduling details.
