Welcome to Boise ISSA

The Information Systems Security Association (ISSA)® is a not-for-profit, international organization of information security professionals and practitioners. It provides educational forums, publications and peer interaction opportunities that enhance the knowledge, skill and professional growth of its members.

Wow, if you missed the training in August, you'll wish you were there, because Paul Alderson provided an excellent hands-on session. Stay tuned for even more quality training as Ken Dunham and his education crew plan future events.

The next neeting is the September regular meeting; I hope you can make it.

Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) are a cybercrime category directed at business and political targets. APTs require a high degree of stealthiness and a prolonged operation in order to be successful. The attack objectives therefore typically extend beyond immediate financial gain, and compromised systems continue to be of service even after key systems have been breached and initial goals reached.

Please come prepared to discuss, ask questions and be a part of the overall learning process.

Please RSVP to Bret Denton membership@Boiseissa.org

If you are not a member, you are welcome to all regular monthly meetings but you need to pay $10.00 for the lunch. If you are a member and reply that you will attend, but then do not show up, remember that we ordered a lunch for you and we may ask you to reimburse us for any lunch we purchased for you. If you do not let us know that you're going to attend, but do show up, you will not be able to have a lunch unless there are some available after all those who RSVP'd have received their lunches.
