Join us on Tuesday, August 21 for our monthly chapter meeting:

Topic:
Cybersecurity: No longer just an IT issue.

Speaker:
Mark Fearer

Abstract:
Information security and physical security share at least the domains of insider threat, access control, and awareness training. Protecting the keys to the kingdom involves safeguarding assets. What do you wish to protect? How valuable is what you wish to protect? An Impact Analysis identifies valuable assets via Risk Assessment. In comparing and contrasting information security with physical security we have in common at least gatekeepers, authentication, insider threats, awareness training, and the issues of factory defaults.

Mark Fearer will discuss the domains of insider threat, access control, and awareness training then compare and contrast information security with physical security.
