Welcome to Global Security Exchange (GSX)

Here’s a quick preview of what we’ve been working on:

Exciting Educational Sessions

The GSX educational program features more than 300 sessions in 17 different tracks, with a new emphasis on developments impacting the security industry—unmanned vehicles, cybersecurity, cannabis, workplace violence, and more. General sessions featuring keynotes from Ian Bremmer, Steve Demetriou, General John F. Kelly, and Tarah Wheeler kick off each day’s activities.

Q&A with ASIS President Christina Duffey, CPP

Learn about the significant strategic and operational progress the association has made over the past year.

Security Cares Lands in Chicago

Through a competitive application process, schools in the local community applied to receive a grant from ASIS International and ASIS Foundation School Security Grant Competition, as well as in-kind donations from the local chapter. This year, DeWitt Clinton Elementary School, home to more than 1,200 students, has been chosen as the recipient of the $20,000 grant.

Regular Today in Security updates will resume Monday, 16 September. In the meantime, we hope to see you at GSX!
