Sip Smarter. Secure Stronger.

Join San Jose IT experts Nevtec and Sophos, a global leader in cybersecurity, for an unforgettable Thursday afternoon where digital defense meets handcrafted whiskey. We’ve partnered with San Jose’s award-winning 10th Street Distillery to pair five of the most pressing cyber threats with five bold California whiskeys because serious conversations deserve a smoother delivery.

Whether you’re in manufacturing, distribution, law enforcement, healthcare, or construction, this event is tailored to help you understand your industry’s unique vulnerabilities and how to defend against them.

The Cybersecurity Whiskey Featured Flight

  1. Ransomware & Peated Single Malt
    A smoky wake-up call. Just like peated whiskey, ransomware leaves a lingering impact. We’ll show you how to build a strong recovery plan and defend your most valuable assets.
  2. Phishing & Social Engineering / California Coast Blended Whiskey
    Light, citrusy, and deceptively smooth. This pairing mirrors the polished facade of today’s phishing attacks. Learn how to train your team and spot the bait.
  3. Insider Threats / Rum Cask Finish Single Malt
    Aged in sweetness, but sometimes with a bitter surprise. This pairing dives into access control, monitoring, and minimizing human error.
  4. Zero-Day Exploits / Distiller’s Cut Single Malt
    Rare, uncut, and powerful. Zero-day vulnerabilities are unpredictable, but you can be prepared with the right strategy and real-time threat detection.
  5. Supply Chain Attacks / Holiday Edition Port Cask Single Malt
    Rich, layered, and influenced by external sources. This whiskey reflects the way third-party vendors can unknowingly expose your environment to risk.
