International. According to Christine Murphy Peck, ASIS International's Director of Global Learning, in a rapidly evolving world, security professionals face a variety of daunting threats across both physical and digital domains.
Murphy Peck says workplace violence, active attackers, cyberattacks, and data breaches have become all too common, jeopardizing the security and integrity of organizations.
"As frontline advocates against these hazards, safety experts must continually improve their skills, knowledge, and capabilities to effectively neutralize these hazards. Mastering cutting-edge techniques, gaining a deep understanding of emerging threats, and developing robust strategies are crucial to building a truly resilient enterprise, capable of withstanding and overcoming the complex challenges of the modern security landscape."
As threats continue to increase in the physical and digital domains, the world's best security professionals must come together. And indeed, they will meet at GSX 2024, a major event taking place September 23-25 in Orlando, Florida.

GSX attendees will dive into a timely body of insights, forecasting ominous trends looming on the horizon and uncovering battle-tested best practices to combat the ever-evolving risks that threaten businesses across all areas of security risk management, digital transformation, data privacy, and more.
"This convergence offers a unique opportunity to elevate your professional dominance to unprecedented heights, with the potential to accumulate up to 22 CPEs. Attending GSX will provide them with advanced skills to combat emerging security threats head-on, enabling them to create a strong and resilient security posture for their organization through continuous learning and knowledge sharing," said ASIS International's Director of Global Learning.
