Developing and Connecting Cybersecurity Leaders Globally

Through involvement with your chapter and access to ISSA International resources, you can turn that value statement into a roadmap for your career and a vision for driving our own destiny as cybersecurity professionals. This is a growing field with a shortage of qualified professionals to fill out our security teams. Together we can use our collective knowledge and expertise to enhance our stature and influence within our companies and organizations.

"As IT security professionals, we are often called upon to advise a wide spectrum of issues. By being fully engaged in a peer organization that shares information, our abilities are enhanced to adapt and respond appropriately.”
