Alaris, Exponent, and NGS to Host Arizona CISO Community in Phoenix

San Francisco, April 3, 2026. Alaris Security, together with Exponent and NGS, will host an evening gathering for Arizona's CISO community in Phoenix on April 16, 2026. The event brings together security leaders from across the state for peer-driven conversation about the challenges and opportunities shaping security operations today.

The private, invitation-only gathering is designed for a select group of working CISOs and senior security leaders who want to connect with peers navigating similar challenges, from managing increasingly complex threat landscapes to building resilient security programs with constrained resources.

What to Expect

• Peer Networking: An intimate format designed for meaningful connections between Arizona's security leaders, not a conference hall with 500 strangers.
• Practical Conversations: Discussion topics driven by what attendees are actually dealing with, not vendor roadmaps.
• Co-hosted Format: Brought together by Alaris, Exponent, and NGS, three organizations committed to advancing security operations for the practitioners who do the work.

Why Arizona

Arizona's technology and defense sectors have grown significantly, and with that growth comes an expanding attack surface and a rising demand for experienced security leadership. The Arizona CISO community event creates a space for local security leaders to share what they're learning, build relationships, and strengthen the region's collective security posture.

“The best security communities are local. National conferences are useful, but the relationships you build with peers in your own region are the ones you call when something goes wrong at 2 AM. That's what we're building here.”

Attendance

The event is private and invitation-only, limited to a select group of CISOs and senior security leaders in the Arizona region. Interested attendees can request an invitation by contacting the Alaris events team or reaching out through Exponent or NGS.
