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.

January's meeting was a fantastic overview of an eDiscovery case in action. Structured Communications brought in Andy Spruil from Guidance Software to discuss his part in a precedent setting legal case, Victor Stanley vs Creative Pipe. This mind-blowing case of intellectual property theft has redefined how some evidence is viewed by the courts. Our next meeting of 2012 is coming up quickly! Please see below...

February 2nd is our next regular meeting. Speaker details below.

Please take a moment to look at the companies which have decided to support us for a whole year or month by month. The new link at the side entitled "Our Sponsors" shows a growing list of companies who want to ensure we continue to have quality training and events.
