Enterprises today face rapidly changing threats as never before. From combating viruses aimed at extorting money from individuals like the FBI virus to more sophisticated viruses like Stuxnet targeting infrastructure to perceived espionage-related efforts in Flame and Red October, the task of the cyber security professional to protect an organization’s information assets is more critical than ever. An increasingly sophisticated threat landscape coupled with the advancement of technology and connectivity requires security professionals to constantly keep abreast of latest trends and strategies to secure their organization’s infrastructure with orchestrated efforts.

(ISC)² www.isc2.org, the world’s largest not-for-profit information security professional body and administrators of the CISSP®, will host the (ISC)² SecureAsia conference in Manila on August 7-8. (ISC)² SecureAsia conference series now is on its 8th year, bringing together leading information security experts from government, industry, and academia from the Americas, EMEA, and the Asia-Pacific regions to share their experiences and expertise to help address the challenges IT professionals face. This year, with the strong support of local co-organizers from the Philippines, National Defense College of the Philippines (NDCP) and National Defense College of the Philippines Alumni Association, Inc. (NDCPAAI), SecureAsia@Manila will bring you the most comprehensive education and networking event in the security industry in Asia-Pacific.

Held in conjunction with the SecureAsia conference, (ISC)²’s Asia-Pacific Information Security Leadership Achievements (ISLA) Program recognizes professionals for their outstanding leadership and achievements in workforce improvement of IT security and management professionals throughout the Asia-Pacific region. Since 2007, the ISLA Program has recognized over 140 outstanding honorees in over 15 Asia-Pacific economies at gala dinners held during the annual SecureAsia Conference. This year, the gala dinner will be held on August 8, the second day of the conference where veterans of information security will gather together to celebrate the achievements that the true hero and heroine have done in the past years.

This is the ONE information security conference and gathering in Asia-Pacific that you cannot miss!
