The Changing Environment of Information
Security: Dealing with New Technologies, New Threats and
New Laws
The information security risk environment seems to be in
constant change, perhaps never more so than in 2009. New
technologies and application like cloud computing, social
networking, virtual worlds and ever-more-powerful
smartphones have great potential benefits, but do we really
know their risks and how to manage them? Cybercriminals are
more organized and sophisticated than ever - are
cyberwarriors coming next? And what new strategies and
legal actions will the new administration pursue that may
enhance, or hinder, our ability to deal with these threats
and vulnerabilities?
In order to address these issues, Co-Directors John R.
Christiansen and Barbara Endicott-Popovsky are pleased to
announce the 2009 Information Security Compliance and Risk
Management Institute. The Institute is an annual
interdisciplinary event for information technology and
security professionals, attorneys and auditors for advanced
learning and improvement of the arts, sciences and laws of
electronic information and information technology use and
protection.
The Institute will be held September 16 - 17 on the
University of Washington campus in Seattle. This year's
Institute will focus on the identification and management
of risks posed by key new technologies, emerging and
growing threats to our networks and data, and new laws,
legal strategies and theories which affect organizations'
information security governance and management.
Attendees will have the opportunity to hear from and
interact with leaders in information technology
implementation, information security, law and audit, and
work with them in breakout sessions to develop
recommendations for governance and management strategies
and public policy recommendations for dealing with the new
information security environment.
This program is appropriate for anyone responsible for
information technology or security, risk management and
legal compliance for any organization which depends on
information technology and electronic information.
