Attendance is open to all. Topic: The Building Blocks of Information Security With the advent of the wild-wild-web most believe that information security is a technological issue that can be readily addressed and solved. To an extent they are correct in that the more common cause of failure (and repair) is a technology issue. However, these failures commonly are the result of other factors and are destined to be repeated unless these other factors are corrected. To build and maintain an effective Information Security program it is imperative that management has an understanding of the scope and depth of the elements relating to information security.
