it-sa and secIT by Heise agree on event partnership

The two IT security trade fairs, it-sa and secIT by Heise, have joined forces in an exclusive event partnership. it-sa Expo&Congress and secIT thus emphasize the importance of both events in conveying IT security expertise in the German-speaking region: On 15 and 16 March, secIT in Hanover offers a learning opportunity for IT security managers, while the it-sa Expo&Congress will once again turn Nuremberg into the “Home of IT Security” for three days starting on 10 October. The aim is to provide mutual support in promoting both events. A direct transfer at a content level is also planned: Experts from Heise will make regular contributions to the it-sa 365 digital dialogue platform, at the IT Security Talks on 7-8 March, for example.

“IT security expertise is growing in a highly dynamic environment,” asserts Frank Venjakob, Executive Director it-sa, NürnbergMesse. “Managers are constantly required to keep their knowledge up to date and to network actively. it-sa and secIT provide features with the necessary professional depth and complement each other perfectly. We are therefore very pleased with our successful collaboration with Heise.”

Jörg Mühle, Member of the Board at Heise Medien, explains the background: “it-sa Expo&Congress in the south and secIT by Heise in the north complement each other perfectly. The spring and autumn events give participants two opportunities each year to learn about IT security in detail. Fascinating and in-depth presentations and workshops round out the comprehensive programme. Both events offer exhibitors an ideal platform to present their products and services and to engage in person with participants. IT security is not only one of the most important topics of current interest but is also, and always, a question of teamwork – and it-sa and secIT are moving forward together.”
