Hey Community!
You may have seen a new event added to our incredible list of upcoming enablement opportunities.
One I would like to highlight is something built specifically for you. SecOps SIEMposium 2026 is coming to San Diego this October. There have been a lot of requests for more hands-on training, more focus on SecOps best practices, more help adopting new features as they ship. This inspired SIEMposium! It's a first-of-its-kind technical conference and training week focused entirely on Google SecOps.
The format
This is a three days hands-on Master Classes taught by experienced SecOps instructors, followed by a full conference day of keynotes and lessons learned from the trenches. No expo hall, no booth crawl, no vendor bingo.
Parse & Recreation (Oct 5) — Hands-on learning and practice across all aspects of parsing: extensions, custom parsers, UDM, Entity Data Model & Enrichment, JavaScript parsing, and more.
YARApalooza (Oct 6) — Build up from basic to advanced YARA-L and SQL constructs for hunting, search, detections, and dashboards.
SOARcery (Oct 7) — Scale playbooks, response, and SOAR integrations. Hook to MCPs and build the foundation for agentic capabilities.
The Conference Day (Oct 8) — Keynotes and lessons learned from Google SecOps and industry leaders .
Battle on the Bay (Evening of Oct 8) — A live threat-hunting CTF against an Armadin-powered advanced AI attacker, aboard a dinner cruise on Mission Bay.
While the Master Classes are designed to provide beginner-friendly as well as advanced paths, they are technical in nature and will require a laptop and willingness to take on a challenge. You can join for any of the days, depending on your interest in topics.
Featured speakers include notable authors from this community: John Stoner, Mike Wilusz, Travis Lanham, Anton Chuvakin, and Chris Martin — with more to be announced.
