FrostCon 2025

Charlotte Winter Cyber Talks is now FrostCon!

​

There was such wonderful feedback for the Inaugural Charlotte Winter Cyber Talks, that BSides Charlotte, Charlotte ISSA, and Phish Club decided to make it annual!

Join us for FrostCon (still Charlotte Winter Cyber Talks, just with an easier-to-say name!) on December 3rd at the Booth Playhouse. Engage with an inspiring series of 15-minute lightning talks covering the most pressing topics in cybersecurity today. These sessions are crafted to inspire, educate, and spark innovation, addressing the needs of a diverse audience that includes everyone from novices to experts, and entry-level employees to executives.

​

Once doors are open at 8:00 AM, we will have opening remarks at 9:00 AM. Presentations will run throughout the day, ensuring you’ll leave with new perspectives, practical insights, and meaningful connections.  A Holiday Party hosted by Charlotte ISSA will follow the conference day.  

​

​Whether you're looking to expand your knowledge, build your network, or gain inspiration, we invite you to join us in celebrating the passion, growth, and community of Charlotte’s cybersecurity network.

​

Come for the Inspiration—Stay for the Community. We’ll see you there! (Tickets are available here!)

​

Not only that, but due to the decision to make FrostCon annual, BSides Charlotte, Charlotte ISSA, and Phish Club decided to offer a day of trainings and workshops the day after the talks!

​

Join us for FrostCon Trainings on December 4th at the Bank of America building in Ballantyne!

Rogue Labs (Nick Downer & Jackson Compton) will take you on a cybersecurity journey in "From Red to Blue: Attack and Defense in Action"! This training has both a morning and afternoon session and are 4 hours long.

For those attending training, don't forget to bring your resume for review before (for afternoon classes) or after (for morning classes) your training to chat with local industry leaders for ideas on how to spruce up your resume or chat about career directions and opportunities.
