Introducing the 2024 SplunkTrust!

Hello, Splunk Community! We are beyond thrilled to announce our newest group of SplunkTrust members!

The goal of the SplunkTrust™ program is not to recognize users in the room who know the most about Splunk. Rather, the SplunkTrust program was created to acknowledge and recognize those who go above and beyond to help their fellow Splunk practitioners and who have truly helped shape this wonderful, vibrant community. 

This is an honor that represents a recognition by peers that the person embodies the hallmarks of the program — being helpful, technical, knowledgeable, and readily available. And it comes with perks, too! SplunkTrust members receive the coveted Splunk Fez with membership pin, Splunk EDU credits, and a free pass to .conf24.

Splunk inducts the cohort of SplunkTrust members annually at .conf, which will be happening June 11 - 14 in Las Vegas this year. We’ll be welcoming four new SplunkTrust members, and welcoming back 48 returning members from our previous SplunkTrust selection.

And so, without further ado, we are so excited to announce our .conf24 SplunkTrust cohort:
