Black Hat 2019: Network Security and Beyond

The 2019 Black Hat USA conference may have come and gone, and we’re thrilled to report a successful and productive (and fun!) experience at one of the industry’s top security conferences. Black Hat is still at the top of our minds, thanks to over one thousand network security conversations that took place at our booth. 
Join us as we look back on last week’s event from start to finish, sharing our key learnings, conversations and booth activities.

Simon Says: Visit Perimeter 81’s Booth

We went all out at Black Hat – we had extensive demos so attendees could walk through our Zero Trust Network as a Service solution and all of its capabilities.
We also made sure that guests were in for some fun! Attendees who stopped by our booth experienced nostalgia by playing the game Simon Says. Each participant that successfully made it to the second stage of the game was automatically entered into a raffle for great prizes. Winners received wireless headphones, retro puzzles, and portable record player.

Presenting at the SentinelOne Booth

Our CEO and Co-Founder Amit Bareket presented at SentinelOne’s booth where he discussed our latest partnership with SentinelOne. The new partnership provides a wide range of businesses, from midsize companies to Fortune 500s, with unified network and endpoint security, ensuring more effective threat defense for the cloud and mobile-first world.
The new integration with SentinelOne’s next-gen solution ensures that endpoints are fully compliant and protected before they join Perimeter 81’s secure cloud-based network.

Mirage of Industry Experts

During the week of Black Hat, thousands of security experts converge together in Las Vegas to get a better understanding of the security trends in 2019 and forward. This presents a great opportunity for customers and vendors to meet industry experts in person. Our Director of Solution Architecture, Sivan Tehila, had the pleasure of meeting with Richard Stiennon the author of Secure Cloud Transformation: The CIO’S Journey While talking to Richard, Sivan presented our solution and explained how it fulfills the vision of his great book.

Great Conference to See Customers

One of the best parts of attending Black Hat has been the opportunity to meet with our amazing clients. Even if it’s just a quick hello or a longer conversation, it’s great to be acknowledged by your customers. While at the conference we had great conversations with eight different customers and each conversation provided us with real-time customer insights of our solution.
