Why Join the Information System Security Association?

Written by R. Elam


I’ve finally stopped procrastinating and joined my local Information System Security Association, Colorado Springs Chapter (ISSA-COS). A few of my co-workers have been encouraging me to join since last year.

Overrepparttar past year many ofrepparttar 135196 benefits that they’ve enjoyed as member ofrepparttar 135197 ISSA have spilled over on to me. I encourage all serious Information security professional to join becauserepparttar 135198 ISSA has their fingers onrepparttar 135199 pulse on all information security events, jobs and seminars at discount prices. ISSA members are always up onrepparttar 135200 latest security events and seminars in town. Just two months ago, an ISSA member invited me to attend an Certified Ethical Hacking course. I actually had no idea that there was a “hacking certification” prior to her email. I attended a free seminar with mile2 and loved it so much I decided to attendrepparttar 135201 whole course. I was able to attend an Ethical Hacking Course which my company paid for. I’ll be going for that cert. soon. As an ISSA member you will have access to many information security jobs inrepparttar 135202 area and aroundrepparttar 135203 world. Recently, one of my former co-workers (ISSA member) sent me information on an information security job in Baghdad. For fear of being apart of a hostage reality show on Al Jazeera TV, I declined. Would you decline a 300K/year job? I must admit I think about it every now and then. My co-worker actually tookrepparttar 135204 job and is much braver than I am.
