to Speak on Managing Risk by Monitoring Controls at
Information Security Decisions Conference
Matt Mosley, founding member of the Security Consortium, to examine benefits of control frameworks in minimizing impact and cost of audits
Reston, VA, November 2, 2007—Intellitactics today announced that Matt Mosley, Senior Technical Account Director with Intellitactics, will speak on Managing Risk by Monitoring Controls at the Fifth Annual Information Security Decisions Conference being held November 5-7, 2007, at the Chicago Hilton and Towers in Chicago, Illinois. Mosley will present on Tuesday, November 6 from 10:45 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. within the “Technology in Action” track.
With the continuing attention on regulatory compliance, many organizations are still investing significant time and money in an attempt to protect themselves from negative audit findings. Some investment choices are successful in the short term, but many organizations have discovered that passing an audit does not necessarily make an organization more secure.
Mosley will address the importance of managing risk by implementing and monitoring the performance of controls. He will also examine an approach that minimizes the impact and cost of audits while increasing the overall security posture of the organization. He will also speak to the reasons why incorporating control frameworks within a security program enables efficiencies in identifying and assessing threats, correcting vulnerabilities, and ultimately minimizing the impact to the availability of critical business services.
