When the train that is the RSA Conference pulls into San Francisco next month, its arrival will mark 17 years since a small group gathered in Redwood City, Calif. to lay the groundwork for what would become the world's largest IT security show.
The year was 1991, and the event, then known as "Cryptography, Standards & Public Policy," consisted of no more than 50 people, all cryptographers. Two years later, the gathering became the annual RSA Conference and began attracting hundreds of people from all realms of information security.
