Hurricane Labs is proud to sponsor the upcoming Cleveland Splunk User Group Holiday Happy Hour, a free community event bringing together Splunk users and cybersecurity professionals across Northeast Ohio.

If you're based in the Cleveland area and work with Splunk, this is an excellent opportunity to connect with peers, exchange insights, and strengthen our local technical community.

The Cleveland Splunk User Group is a regional community of Splunk users who meet both virtually and in person to share use cases, best practices, tips, and updates.

The group is co-organized in part by Tom Kopchak, our Director of Technical Operations at Hurricane Labs.

This is a perfect opportunity to unwind, enjoy some great food and drinks, and connect with other members of the Cleveland Splunk User Group. There’s no formal agenda - just a relaxed environment to share stories, discuss ideas, and plan for an exciting year ahead in 2026.

Whether you’re a seasoned practitioner or just getting started, you are welcome to join us and be part of a supportive local network.
