Trusted relationships. Better wellbeing. Shared adventures.

Leadership belongs outside.

Outdoor CISO is a private community for cybersecurity and technology leaders who want to connect through hiking, golf, skiing, fishing, diving, and other outdoor experiences — without vendor pitches, badge scans, or lead lists.

Why this exists

A better way to connect.

After years of conference dinners, receptions, and networking events, many leaders leave feeling like they only spoke to a few people, stayed out too late, and didn’t feel better afterward.

Outdoor CISO was created for something different: time outside, real conversations, movement, fresh air, and meaningful relationships with peers who understand the pressure of leadership.

Get outside

Hikes, golf outings, ski days, fishing trips, dives, and local outdoor experiences.

Meet peers

Cybersecurity and technology leaders connecting without forced networking or sales pressure.

Protect trust

No attendee lists shared. No vendor pitches. No lead generation disguised as community.

Who attends

Built for cybersecurity and technology leaders.

Membership is intended for CISOs, CIOs, CTOs, Directors, VPs, and other senior cybersecurity or technology leaders. We are building a trusted peer community, not another vendor dinner.

Zero Day Events

Arrive early. Get outside. Connect differently.

Zero Day events are conference-adjacent experiences hosted the day before major industry gatherings. Instead of another late dinner, join peers for a sunrise hike, round of golf, ski day, run club, or local outdoor adventure before the conference begins.

Start the week energized, not exhausted.
