Yes, you do, which you should or you shouldn't have to. But yes, it's forgotten a lot.

Yeah, well, I got, you know, besides the day job, actually, I have a couple of new projects through the day job, which is keeping me busy. And we're about to launch the new cybersecurity practice for control systems at Floor. So really excited about that and some changes that hopefully we'll see in January moving forward. And then, of course, the big news besides ICS.

Nice ICSOT, which is really exciting for February 10th. So we're lined up, we'll be in Tampa. So it's the day before the S4 conference. So a lot of, you know, we get a lot of the ICSOT expert crowd as well.

I think Dale describes it for S4, but then also trying to make an event more accessible and available to folks with a focus on whether you just want to come learn more about what ICSOT is, or if you're already, maybe you are an asset owner or operator and you want to learn more from a practical perspective.

and want things that you can take back to the office the following day to actually put right into action. I think that's a big focus for us. And you don't get that stuff typically at a lot of other conferences, unfortunately. And that's always been a big focus for me, at least for me going to conferences, right? That's the kind of material that I want.

And so that's, I think, resonates with a lot of folks. And, you know, and that's not what S4 is designed to share, right? And so, but it's why not have an event the day before where we can take advantage of all the great folks, you know, that are in town for S4, but also... bring new folks and the asset owners and operators into the event. I'm really, really excited.

The B-Size community was really supportive of us trying this. They typically don't have events all over the world and they don't typically have an event that's dedicated to a particular niche. So they've done like a few over the years. They did a Splunk besides once. So hopefully this goes really well because we've already had some some folks reach out about doing Splunk.

versions like in the UK and India and other places. So that's really exciting. And so, yeah, so I'm really, really hopeful. So it's yeah, it's it's incredible to be able to do that.

Yeah, it really, I mean, I've been in IT cyber for 30 plus years, but doing OT cyber for 10-ish, the ICSOT cyber community is just above and beyond. There's some great people in IT, don't get me wrong, but it's the ICSOT community. It's just that, I think it's just the people here really are focused on the mission, you know,
