Some members have found the Good Reader (Lite) a pretty reliable and easy to use application for reading the ISSA Journal on their iPhones. The following directions have been written using Good Reader-Lite, however ISSA does not endorse any particular application and only offers this as an example.
- Access your iPhone email to read your Journal delivery message (sent yesterday, September 1)
- Tap to download the .pdf file from your mail server (it will take a moment due to the file size and your connectivity)
- Tap to open the Journal .pdf file from the email message. It will be displayed on your screen.
- On the message bar located on the top of your screen is an option to “Open In GoodReader”, tap on this option
- GoodReader will load, placing this month’s Journal in the “GoodReader” library and then display the Journal.
- Double tap the screen of your iPhone to increase the size
- Tap once to display the GoodReader options such as:
- Turn page forward/back
- Change the orientation
- Zoom
- And most importantly – read the file using “PDF ReFlow” , which essentially extracts it into pure text. This allows you to view it as a simple txt file without left/right scrolling and with the font size of your choice. Unlike with TXT files, you don’t have to choose the txt encoding to view. It makes reading the Journal easy! This option also has an “automatic scroll” so that you can read without flicking from page to page.
Once you have the Journal in your GoodReader library, you can read it at any time and any where! Simply open the GoodReader application on your iPhone and select the Journal from the list in your library.

- Does your organization employ egress filtering?
- Do you monitor and retain your DNS records?
- Has security visualization served you as part of incident response?
- How do you manage huge logging data footprints?
- Short retention cycle?
- Ensure good "rules" that capture only real events of interest?
- How do you capture memory, and drive/volume images when virtualization is in play?

Web Conference Overview:
Risk Management is still very much an area fraught with challenges for the Infosec professional. Addressing risk is a central part of any Information Security Management System (ISMS), and the better we can manage risk the more effective, efficient and aligned to the business our ISMS is likely to be. Just as ISMS review is an iterative process, risk management review should be too. Our speakers discuss how we can best formalize the Risk Management Lifecycle to help us improve security and the quality of our Infosec decision making.

ISSA Connect: Airplane Downed by USB Malware Installed in Military Computers!
Does this title sound like it should be on Snopes? Or perhaps coming from your favorite vendor, [insert vendor here]? Well, it wasn’t exactly made up, but there is plenty of reason for skepticism. We had two big “revelations” last week: first, that malware downed a Spanish Air flight, killing 154 people (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/08/20/spanair_malware/), and second, that a USB flash drive installed malware on a PC in the Middle East created “the most significant breach of U.S. military computers ever.” (http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/26/technology/26cyber.html?_r=4). These sound like two very important events, but as often happen, within days there were more details that call the entire story into question.
Both of these events will be filed away for our “Most Significant” or “Most Overhyped” contests at the end of the year, but they are worth discussing now. Connect on Connect for a summary of the must-read articles about both incidents, both supporting the facts laid out and then others are skewering them. And more importantly, voice your opinion.

Consec '10 - A New Decade of Information Security
- September 27-29, 2010
- Norris Conference Center
- Austin, TX, USA
In the 2000s, “cyber threats” grew up. Social networks emerged as the second home of millions. They attracted both legitimate new business models and new ways to defraud. Identity theft became a household term. From the network-crippling Code Red and Nimda worms of 2001, through financially-motivated rogue security software, SQL injection compromises, the rise of bot-nets, and in 2009 the theft of 130 million credit card numbers, the threats have trended away from “hacking,” for notoriety sake, toward cybercrime, for profit.

Biometrics: State of the Union

Start Time: 9:00 a.m. US Pacific/ 12:00 p.m. US Eastern/ 5:00 p.m. London
CLICK HERE to register for this ISSA Web Conference
Web Conference Overview:
Increasing legal and regulatory requirements are driving the need for biometric information security in support of audit and compliance. Repeated data loss and theft events have highlighted the impacts caused by unencrypted data, and the threats to unprotected biometric data. The need for consumer confidence is driving requirements for tighter security and strong, reliable authentication.
How do we protect biometric information without affecting the systems that process biometric data? How do we ensure that access control decisions based on biometrics are based on our organization’s security policies and not simply on vendor algorithms and device settings? Can we build interoperable networks of trust using biometric policies and practices? What are the strengths and weaknesses of the six most commonly used biometric technologies? How does an implementer defeat common spoofing attacks and usability challenges? All of this and more will be discussed in the upcoming ISSA Web Conference.

The ISSA Journal: Does Using External Security Resourcing Make Business Sense?
This article by Jim Kates, of the South Texas Chapter, explores whether it makes business sense to use less costly externally managed services to perform routine IT or IT security tasks; or do the security concerns outweigh the business decision? To read more…
Read the article in Connect, ask Jim Kates a question and leave your insights and perspective for your fellow ISSA members.

Consec '10 - A New Decade of Information Security
- September 27-29, 2010

In the 2000s, “cyber threats” grew up. Social networks emerged as the second home of millions. They attracted both legitimate new business models and new ways to defraud. Identity theft became a household term. From the network-crippling Code Red and Nimda worms of 2001, through financially-motivated rogue security software, SQL injection compromises, the rise of bot-nets, and in 2009 the theft of 130 million credit card numbers, the threats have trended away from “hacking,” for notoriety sake, toward cybercrime, for profit.

In the ISSA Journal: Security Metrics: An Overview
The selection of security metrics is critical because it costs time and money to collect and monitor the data being measured. Moreover, the choice of security metrics may lead to a false sense of security or otherwise misguide your security efforts.
This article by Clare E. Nelson of the Capitol of Texas Chapter provides an overview of security metrics as related to risk management, limited in scope to IT security.
Continue reading this article on BlueToad or as a blog on Connect where you can join in the discussion and ask Clare any questions you may have.

In the ISSA Journal: Maddening Methods: Fundamentals of Risk Assessment and Analysis
Considerable confusion exists in the security industry around the effectiveness of risk assessment and analysis methodologies. Points of contention often focus on specific attributes of a given method, such as data quality, statistical analysis, or a qualitative versus quantitative approach. There are reasonable, viable answers to these points of contention that resolve most of these concerns. In this article Benjamin Tomhave of the Northern Virginia Chapter seeks to level-set on this topic and provide information that is often left out in anti-risk assessment arguments.
Read the article; then go to Connect, ask Benjamin a question and leave your thoughts for your fellow ISSA members.

Consec '10 - A New Decade of Information Security
- September 27-29, 2010
- Norris Conference Center
- Austin, TX, USA
In the 2000s, “cyber threats” grew up. Social networks emerged as the second home of millions. They attracted both legitimate new business models and new ways to defraud. Identity theft became a household term. From the network-crippling Code Red and Nimda worms of 2001, through financially-motivated rogue security software, SQL injection compromises, the rise of bot-nets, and in 2009 the theft of 130 million credit card numbers, the threats have trended away from “hacking,” for notoriety sake, toward cybercrime, for profit.
Early Bird Registration through September 9, 2010.
Conference plus workshop $295 (Members) / $335 (non-Member)
Conference Only $255 (Members) / $290 (non-Members)
Executive Edge One Day $195 (Member and non-Member rate)

Can a US National Trusted Digital Identity Infrastructure Really Work?
Since the beginning of the use of the Internet back in the 80’s we have struggled with the lack of a centralized infrastructure to provide trusted digital identities to enable individuals and organizations to complete online transactions with confidence, trusting the identities of each other and the infrastructure on which it runs. As a result, many have argued that we should have a nationalized digital identity infrastructure. Why would that be useful?
Howard Schmidt, current US White House Cyber Security Coordinator and Past President of our International Board of Directors, has come up with a very promising proposal and invites of your consideration and review. You can provide your feedback to Mr. Schmidt and DHS by visiting www.nstic.ideascale.com.
We would also appreciate knowing how ISSA members evaluate this proposal. Visit ISSA Connect and post your comments and recommendations. Participate in the poll that accompanies the discussion HERE.

Is PCI Worth It?
PCI is both heralded and maligned for its contribution to enterprise security. Many folks believe it is the best thing to happen to security and its prescriptive nature contributes a strong benefit to any security program. Others believe it is a paper drill that only addresses basic checkbox requirements and reduces an organization’s enthusiasm for truly strong security. What do you think? Take the survey here http://www.keysurvey.com/survey/315366/1bea/ and add your comments in Connect. One lucky survey respondent will win an ISSA golf shirt.

Update Membership Profiles by Tomorrow for International Election
Only active members in good standing who have a current email address in their ISSA membership profiles will receive voter credentials for the election of the International Board of Directors. Check your membership profile today to make sure your information is correct. Profiles must be updated by May 14. It’s also time to renew if your membership has or is about to lapse, to ensure you receive credentials. If you have questions regarding the election or membership status or need assistance to renew or update your profile, please contact Dana Paulino, Manager of Member and Chapter Relations.
The election will take place online between June 1 and June 30. From the following slate of candidates, you will select the International President and five directors to represent you for the next two years. Please note that Marc Noble has withdrawn his candidacy for Director to avoid any perception of a conflict of interest.

Web Conference Overview: Even the most secure operating systems can be compromised by your applications. Given this issue, how do you convince your management that this may be the case? In addition, once you have convinced them what steps can be taken to mitigate the risk? This session will provide an insight into certifications and techniques that could be used to minimize the potential risks.
Speakers Include:
Jack Jones - Founder, Risk Management Insight
Joe Jarzombek PMP, CSSLP - Director for Software Assurance - National Cyber Security Division Office of Assistant Secretary for Cybersecurity & Communications, Department of Homeland Security
Seyha Phul - Director of Risk and Compliance, SecureWorks
Is Certification the Solution?
Hotly debated and never resolved, the "Is certification relevant?" question is back again. Proposed legislation will require certification of cybersecurity professionals who protect US Critical Infrastructure Information Systems. But, is certification an effective part of the solution? We invite you to provide your insight, share your experience and present alternatives. Before you leave, please participate in a poll and let your opinion be heard.
Calling All Bloggers!
We know there are many ISSA members out there who are also bloggers. Please take a moment to post your blog's url in Connect so other members may benefit from your expertise.
2010 ISSA International Conference
Connect & Collaborate
Atlanta, Georgia - USA
September 2010
http://www.issaconference.org/
The CONNECT & COLLABORATE theme of the 2010 International Conference can be meaningful to information security professionals in a variety of ways: The world is becoming more CONNECTed and we must embrace this free exchange of information, yet maintain the safeguards to protect confidential data and personal privacy. We COLLABORATE in internal work groups to construct effective security while fostering productivity in the new world of mobile devices. As Information Security professionals we are asked to CONNECT many different disciplines ranging from technical to legal compliance. And we COLLABORATE as a professional community sharing our hard won knowledge and valuable lessons learned through programs like the ISSA International Conference to deter breaches and cybercriminals.
Please make your plans today to CONNECT and COLLABORATE with your ISSA International Board, the Metro Atlanta host chapter and the Conference Planning Committee in Atlanta this September.
I hope to see you there in September!

Security Operations Management – Call for Journal Articles
Please submit your ISSA Journal articles by May 1, 2010.
Modern organizations have embedded information technologies into their core processes as a means to increase operational efficiency, improve decision quality, and reduce costs. However, this dependence can place the organizational mission at risk when the loss of the confidentiality, integrity, availability, non-repudiation, or authenticity of a critical information resource occurs. The need to mitigate risks coupled with new laws and regulations has highlighted the need for efficient security operations management that assures organizational governance, security, and transparency.
We are asking you to submit an article related to Security Operations Management for consideration for publication in the ISSA Journal.
Topics of interest include configuration management, change management, risk assessment, risk management, vulnerability assessment, mission assurance, continuity of operations planning, disaster recovery planning, red teaming, physical security, content control, data analysis and fusion, and forensics.
