What are the top things an IT Security Practitioner should be thinking about in 2012? What is the best method for dealing with the known and unknown threats coming at us this year? Should we revise our IT Security Policy... What will be the impact of the upcoming revision of the government MITS... Are there better ways of implementing security compliance frameworks... What is the easiest way to migrate users to multi-factor authentication... and How do we increase awareness of IT security issues among users?
These challenges will be deliberated by three of Ottawa's most knowledgeable, articulate and well regarded IT Security Experts - moderated by a chapter boardmember to maintain the proper decorum. Read our panelist biographies.
Come to this event with your opinions and questions, and help us set the Ottawa information systems Security Agenda for 2012.

Established in 1991, the mission of the Ottawa Chapter of the Information Systems Security Association (ISSA) is to provide a friendly, interactive environment for those with an interest in information security. Through meetings, guest speakers, discussion forums, this website and the concerted efforts of our members, we strive to accomplish this goal. These local Chapter level benefits are augmented by the advantages of membership in ISSA International which provides an e-newsletter, educational online webinars, and partnerships with other IT security organizations many of whom offer discounts to ISSA members.
All of this is aimed towards helping members be more effective in their work both technically and personally, and towards providing professional development opportunities.
Joseé Healey has agreed to join the ISSA Ottawa Chapter as the Registration Director. To contact her, send an email to registration@issa-ottawa.ca.
