ISSA Los Angeles: 1st Annual Security Summit

With the dramatic increase in business losses brought about by the epidemic in cyber-crime, the economics of information security have shifted to where preventing information loss is far less costly than recovering from it.

Visit Gold Sponsors Websense and S&L International at the first annual “ISSA-LA Information Security Summit” on the UCLA Campus and will be hosted by UCLA Extension.

June 3, 2009
7:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m.

The Summit will be the first-ever educational forum in Los Angeles specifically designed to encourage participation and interaction among three vital information security constituencies:

1.      CEOs, COOs, CFOs, Managing Partners and other decision makers with top-level management responsibility for information security and compliance with information privacy laws and regulations

2.      CIOs, Technical Managers, Network and Database Administrators and other IT professionals with responsibility for information systems and the data they contain

3.      CISOs and information security practitioners with day-to-day responsibility for ensuring the security of sensitive information

The Summit is a reflection of the new reality that effectively securing sensitive information requires senior management attention. For example, a company having to notify 1,000 people that their personal financial information has been lost to cybercriminals can expect to spend more than $200,000 complying with ‘breach disclosure’ laws now on the books in California and more than 40 other states.
