About this Event

What is Security Onion?

Security Onion is a free and open source Linux distribution for threat hunting, enterprise security monitoring, and log management. It includes TheHive, Playbook & Sigma, Fleet & Osquery, CyberChef, Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana, Suricata, Zeek, Wazuh, and many other security tools. Security Onion has been downloaded over 2 million times and is being used by security teams around the world to monitor and defend their enterprises. Our easy-to-use Setup wizard allows you to build an army of distributed sensors for your enterprise in minutes!

Why should I attend the Security Onion Conference?

We will have several prominent members of the community giving talks about tools and techniques (see full speaker lineup below). This is your chance to meet with other members of the community, talk about what works and what doesn't, and take your skills to the next level.  

Reserve your seat today! Registration opens August 2 at Noon Eastern Time.

Please note that NO tickets will be sold at the door.  All attendees must pre-purchase their tickets.

Save the day after Security Onion Con for BSidesAugusta, another great Augusta conference. Tickets for BSidesAugusta are very limited this year so the best way to get tickets for it is to register for a training event or the conference here.

If you already have a ticket to one of the training events at BSidesAugusta 2021, September 27-30, then you already have a ticket for Security Onion Conference 2021! Watch your email for more details.
