CHCon 2019 overall was, once again, an excellent infosec conference. Part of the appeal is the different audience, not everyone wants to be in Wellington, and not everything is an Internet-exposed service. There were a great broad range of topics, and perhaps because they're first off the rank in terms of dates my head (and notebook) were filling up with ideas faster here than during the next conferences.
But that's also been my takeout over the last few years as well – CHCon has a different type of energy than Kiwi/Kawaiicon, and a lower barrier to entry. The more people we get exposed to what infosec worries about, the more they might be able to reduce or fix things early.
Congrats to the crew, hope to see you next year!
