ALEXANDRIA, Va. — For the second consecutive year, ASIS Int’l will co-locate the 58th Annual Seminar and Exhibits with the (ISC)² Security Congress in Philadelphia in September.
“As the industry’s leading certification and education organizations, we can strengthen and serve the broader security community best by working together,” (ISC)² Executive Director W. Hord Tipton says.
Scheduled for Sept. 10-13, registrants will gain access to each event’s education sessions, the exhibit hall, and most of the networking events. Both ASIS and (ISC)² will offer review courses for their respective certifications, as well as separate, members-only activities.
“The integration of traditional and information security is a critical issue affecting the practice of security management,” ASIS President Eduard Emde says. “Our members are experiencing an increasing rate of assimilation of a variety of technologies into their functions along with the continuing emphasis on cyber security. Our goal is to help them to become better equipped to succeed in the future.”
(ISC)² stands for the Int’l Information Systems Security Certification Consortium. The nonprofit organization serves as a membership body for about 75,000 certified information security professionals in more than 135 countries.
