13th Annual Gasparilla Cybersecurity Summit
Save the date!
For 13 years, The Digital Hands Gasparilla Cybersecurity Summit has rallied the fiercest captains in security for two unforgettable days of strategy, collaboration, and adventure.
This invitation only gathering unites CISOs, CIOs and global security leaders to navigate treacherous threats, chart new defenses, and share battle-tested tactics through keynotes, workshops, and peer exchanges.
But when the sun sets, the real invasion begins. On day two, we trade blazers for bandanas, hoist the sails, and plunge straight into Tampa’s legendary Gasparilla Pirate Festival – the 3rd largest parade in the nation.
From the decks of our pirate ships, you’ll feast like kings, with a front row seat, as 300,000+ pirates lay siege to the bay.
This isn’t just another cyber summit – it's a cyber-pirate takeover!
