Security, Without the Pitch: Introducing Arctiq’s Security Leader Forums

In today’s security landscape, every leader is navigating the same storm—but far too often, they’re doing it in isolation. CISOs, Security Directors, and technical leaders are burdened with rising threats, resource constraints, and board-level pressure—yet they rarely have a trusted space to compare notes, share pain points, or gain tactical perspective from peers facing the same challenges.

That ends now.

Welcome to SLIQ: The Arctiq Security Leader Intelligence Forum

Arctiq is proud to announce the launch of regional SLIQs—private, peer-to-peer spaces for senior security leaders to speak candidly, build connections, and collaborate on the security issues that matter most in their respective cities.

We’re starting with Las Vegas and Southern California, with the inaugural sessions scheduled for September and October respectively.

Who We’re Inviting

These are not marketing events. They’re not vendor webinars. And they’re not sales funnels disguised as community.

We’re building invite-only groups made up of:

• CISOs and Deputy CISOs
• Directors of Security / Cyber Risk / GRC
• Identity and Zero Trust Program Owners
• Security Architects with strategic influence

If you own, influence, or execute on security priorities within your organization, you belong here.

What You’ll Gain as a Forum Member

Tactical Insights:
Each session will focus on real regional threat trends, open-source intelligence, and peer-submitted challenges—curated to spark conversation that drives action.

Shared Perspective:
Learn what’s working (or not) for others in your space. Whether it’s dealing with MFA fatigue, navigating cloud security complexities, or justifying security budget—someone else in the room has likely been there.

Judgment-Free Conversation:
You don’t have to sanitize your thoughts or speak in hypotheticals. This is a space where directness is respected, candor is protected, and questions are welcome.

Zero Sales Presence:
No Client Directors. No PowerPoint pitches. No follow-up “discovery calls.” Arctiq’s Director of Cybersecurity, Tim Tipton, will facilitate every session personally—ensuring the conversation stays technical, useful, and vendor-neutral.

How It Works

• Monthly Sessions: Virtual (with one in-person each quarter).
• Curated Topics: Based on regional threat trends and participant requests.
• Peer-Led: Tim will guide the dialogue, but the forum is driven by you.
• Discretion First: Sessions are private, with no recordings and no attendee list shared externally.
• Summarized Takeaways: Redacted, high-level themes will be shared with the broader security community to support collective defense—never names or sensitive details.
