News Release - 19 January 2007
Citicus to present at 2007 ISACA/NACACS conference
Citicus
Director, Marco Kapp will be delivering a
presentation on "Risk and compliance management - an approach based
on real-world statistics" at the 2007 ISACA/NACACS conference in Grapevine Texas
in April.
The presentation will explore the essential elements of a robust information
risk and compliance management process and will describe a methodology
that is based on real-world statistics on risk collected over 12
years by the Information Security Forum.
The approach -
automated by Citicus' award-winning web-based software - provides a
simple but rigorous way for organizations to conduct workshop-based
risk assessments for their critical information systems and
consolidate the data for reporting to management on the information
risk status of the enterprise.
The presentation will also look at the relationship between risk
management activities and compliance initiatives such as
Sarbanes-Oxley, Turnbull and Basel II. It will show how a well directed risk
management programme can stave off death-by-a-thousand-checklists that
is often the result of the current trend for increasing regulation
of IT.
