The world's top tech organizations are pursuing an open-source endpoint security strategy using osquery. We will dig into how osquery and Fleet can enable observation, collection, and investigation on endpoints. This open-source strategy eases deployment, reduces cost, improves trust, and provides flexibility to meaningfully improve security on the endpoint.

In an overabundance of caution, we have decided to flip this year’s SW Unlocked to a virtual format. The safety of our listeners and hosts is our number one priority. We will miss seeing you all in person, but we hope you can still join us at Security Weekly Unlocked Virtual! The event will now take place on Thursday, Dec 16 from 9am-6pm ET. You can still register for free at https://securityweekly.com/unlocked.
