Security has without any doubt become far more important, and more complicated, in the last few years than anyone would have thought possible a decade ago.  We now have a Department of Homeland Security and every where you look people are requesting assurances that their personal security and the security of the places they work and play in are state-of-the-art.

Information Security is now absolutely paramount, not just in the eyes of top management looking to insure the protection of information; but also to employees, suppliers and customers alike, as we have learned more and more about identity theft, hackers, intellectual property violations and such things as worms and viruses.  We are also facing some challenging legal situations as such things affect privacy rights, HIPPA, safety, stock values and shareholder interests.

So how do you assure the powers-that-be that what you have done is state of the art, recognized best practices, etc.  Come to that, how do you gain budget approval to enact suitable steps to protect your organization's information?  Responsibility without authority we all know is a farce, but if you cannot expend the time and capital necessary to obtain security, how can you be held responsible if something fails?  It seems to us that an organization-wide and independent information security audit is going to become as necessary to the CTO as a financial audit has been to a CFO for a long time now.

To this end we have asked one of the nation's leading experts in Risk Management and Information Systems consulting to provide us with a venue where senior IT and Security professionals could discuss the latest thinking in this field.

There is of course no cost and no obligation whatsoever placed upon
our guests by attending and even their valet parking will be paid.
