Per the FIRST Traffic Light Protocol standard (v2.0), TLP:RED means for the eyes and ears of individual recipients only. No further disclosure. In the context of a meeting, TLP:RED information is limited to those present.

Social Media at RISEx Chicago: We welcome delegates to share that they're here using #RISExChicago, but participation in the event comes with strict obligations on what can and cannot be shared publicly.

Do NOT post, photograph, screenshot, or share:

  • Delegate faces (without explicit, informed consent)
  • Specific threat actor or malware family names
  • Slides, presentation materials, or workshop content
  • Session summaries, quotes, or key takeaways from speakers
