Overview

Mission

To promote information security in Wichita, KS.

What it reported doing in 2022

OzSec held their annual conference on October 14, 2022 at the Drury Broadview Hotel in Wichita, KS. 500 people attended presentations on cybersecurity from local and industry professionals. This is an increase of 200 people over attendance in 2021.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
