Venue

Over 31 years as a fully-residential conference, we understand the vital role of a venue in providing atmosphere, quality, warmth and intimacy that goes far beyond simply providing meeting rooms and catering, into a special flexibility to go ‘off-script’ to help us put the “Confer” into “Conference”.

In October 2002 (our 9th COSAC) Killashee Hotel hosted our event for the first time in what has become a close bond between COSAC and the venue. Now, more than twenty years later, the environment created for us by Killashee Hotel is second to none. They play a hands-on role and provide a proactive and positive contribution to the organisation of COSAC with countless little personal touches, that even if individually unnoticed by the untrained eye, accumulate into an unrivalled conference experience.

It is difficult to imagine being able to create such a conducive atmosphere anywhere else. Over the years, the management and staff at Killashee have been subjected to our whims, sometimes last-second ideas, and unusual requests. Without fail they have not only delivered but done so with an unfailing attention to detail and a supportive approach that I challenge any conference venue, anywhere, to replicate.

I very much look forward to welcoming you to Killashee Hotel for our 31st annual COSAC Information Security Conference in Ireland.

Best wishes

David Lynas, COSAC Chairman
