| Successful Security Consulting Workshop — April 29, 2018 in San Diego, CA
|
    |
IAPSC
ASIS International (ASIS), the world's largest association for security management professionals and the International Association of Professional Security Consulting (IAPSC), the most widely respected and recognized security consultant association in the industry, announced that in 2018 they are collaborating in offering a specialized training course for those who are interested in becoming security consultants.
The course takes place at the Kona Kai Resort in San Diego, CA on Sunday, April 29, 2018 from 8:00 am – 5 pm (with a welcome reception on the evening of April 28).
This one-day intensive Successful Security Consultant (SSC) training course will mirror the course that has been offered collaboratively at the ASIS Annual Conference over many years, but is now a pre-conference course to the IAPSC Annual Conference. The course explains how to successfully launch a new security consultant practice or jump-star t an existing one. Taught by a faculty of seasoned consultants, attendees will gain an understanding of how to develop and market oneself as a security consultant and how to avoid the expensive mistakes that can sabotage success as a consultant. The program is filled with practical information such as sample proposals and reports.
Registration is now open! This program is offered as a pre-conference workshop at the IAPSC Annual Conference; however, it may be taken as a stand-alone course.

Uber has ignored a security bug that can allow an attacker to hack into user accounts by bypassing two-factor authentication because the ride sharing company says the flaw "isn't a particularly severe" issue. Two-factor authentication (2FA) is a vital part of protecting online accounts. It adds a second layer of security on top of your username and password — which can be be stolen — by sending a code by text message to your phone, for example, which only you would have access to.

Add to that the weaponization of cyber attacks by nation states (think Stuxnet or Russia's attacks on Estonia and elsewhere), and it's no surprise that InfoSec is the priority for governments as well as public and private sector organizations of all sizes and in all industries.
