Sip and Secure Recap
Last week, our local cybersecurity community gathered at the Teardrop Lounge in Portland, Oregon, for our quarterly cybersecurity happy hour.
The idea is simple: gather local cybersecurity experts and enthusiasts together in a laid-back but engaging environment to spark conversations, learning, and connections. We believe these events are key to building a strong, local cybersecurity community and sharing valuable insights, all while empowering everyone who joins us. Our mission is to cultivate a community where better awareness and teamwork make us all safer and more secure. We’re thrilled to keep our Sip & Secure series going and we can’t for the next one!

The Teardrop Lounge is among one of the unique and beautiful venues we have had the privilege of hosting at, and it provided the perfect backdrop for this event.
Attendees enjoyed a selection of beverages and light bites catered by the venue, and the warm atmosphere made it easy to meet new people and mingle with familiar faces.
We’re already on the lookout for other fantastic venues like the Teardrop Lounge for our upcoming events. We aim to create memorable evenings that not only provide valuable networking opportunities but also showcase the best of what our local scene has to offer.
Stay tuned for more exciting locations where we can gather, share, and grow together in the spirit of cybersecurity.
