The third installment of our annual conference, UniCon, will be held virtually on Friday, April 8 this year. While UniCon is usually held on National Unicorn Day, April 9, it unfortunately falls on a Saturday this year, hence the shift in date.
Our theme for this year is "Collaboration". Come hear the best from our customers and friends at our third annual UniCon.
UniCon is a free conference for the entire purple team: security researchers, developers, red teamers, blue teamers, and digital forensics and incident responders. Don’t miss your chance to be a part of the most magical, exciting, and interactive Cyber Conference of the year.
We look forward to making a better future, together.

Ron and Cyndi Gula created the Gula Tech Foundation to amplify the impact of cybersecurity nonprofit organizations. The Gula Tech Foundation operates a $1,000,000 competitive grant process for cybersecurity nonprofits multiple times a year. Each grant competition has a unique cybersecurity focus. Grant winners receive a financial donation and will have the opportunity to participate in an all-expenses-paid marketing program to elevate public awareness of their organization.
The January 2021 grant program focused on nonprofits which increase African American engagement with cybersecurity.
The three winners were Black Cybersecurity Association, NPower Inc and Girlsecurity.
The winners will be given time to speak, and we look forward to learning from their experience.
We are honored to have Ron and Cyndi Gula take part in UniCon21, and grateful for the opportunity to learn from their leadership as they break down barriers in the community.
