HRMCon 2025 will bring security leaders together on October 20, 2025, highlighting the Age of Adaptive Defense with fresh research, leading voices, and actionable strategies.
AUSTIN, TX / ACCESS Newswire / September 4, 2025 / Living Security's Human Risk Management Conference (HRMCon), the premier global event dedicated to advancing cybersecurity through human risk management, today announced it will host its first in-person conference. Now in its sixth year, HRMCon will convene at Q2 Stadium in Austin, Texas, on October 20, 2025.
Hosted by Living Security, HRMCon 2025 will also be live streamed for a global virtual audience, making it the most accessible and engaging HRMCon yet.
"Human Risk Management Conference is an invaluable opportunity to learn from peers, discover best practices, and gain insights that will shape the success of [your] security programs," said Ashley Rose, CEO and Co-Founder of Living Security.
According to Cyentia Institute's latest State of Human Risk Report, organizations using Living Security's Unify platform saw their population of risky users drop by half over the last year-from 43% to 21%-while the share of vigilant users rose from 57% to 79%. These results underscore why security leaders are converging at HRMCon: to move beyond awareness-only models and embrace data-driven strategies that measurably reduce human risk across the enterprise.
