CISO Series A: How to Show Value with Metrics Wednesday, November 28th 1:00pm (EST) http://guest.cvent.com/i.aspx?1Q,M3,8929e221-6ffb-47c2-a882-287597c38eb9

Collecting, centralizing, and analyzing security metrics is critical to understand and manage evolving security requirements in the enterprise. Information security leaders should ensure that the metrics they collect are useful and understandable, and communicate with other executives to ensure that they are being properly interpreted and that they show return on your security investments.

Learn how to:
1. Effectively collect and aggregate metrics
2. Assign value to product purchases through metric correlation
3. Align metrics to your information security maturity level and posture
4. Find out what it costs if there is an outage
5. Discover types of indicators and how they can be used

CISO Series B: Building Security into the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC), Thursday December 6th 1:00pm (EST) (Sponsored by Veracode) http://guest.cvent.com/i.aspx?1Q,M3,166d0cbd-e493-4a1f-946a-aa40df8497b8

Including security early in the information system development life cycle (SDLC) results in less expensive and more effective security than adding it to an operational system after the fact. The second seminar in the CISO Series presents a framework for incorporating security into all phases of the SDLC process, from initiation to disposal.
Learn:

1. How to include information security early on in the SDLC.
2. The key security roles and responsibilities.
3. How to deal with risks that could be ignored.
4. The framework for incorporating security into all phases of the SDLC process.
5. The minimum set of security steps needed.
6. Teaching developers how to write proper code.
7. Ensuring QA staff understands use versus abuse cases.
8. Pre and Post compilation vulnerability scanning and results.
9. Critical Success Factors to a successful program.

CISO Series C: Data Loss Prevention: A Case Study Thursday, December 13th 11:00am (EST) (Sponsored by McAfee) http://guest.cvent.com/i.aspx?1Q,M3,fb6b2b4e-5dbb-48b9-9a54-693d45b444c4

Data breaches are rapidly becoming the forerunner of IT security concerns, in part because of the increase in both the frequency and severity of such breaches.

Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is more than just leakage of data. It is about a holistic approach to deploying people, processes and technology in a manner that serves as a DLP solution itself.

Would you know if:

• You store and send sensitive information to and from business partners that is being intercepted and used by others?
• An employee unwittingly leaked unencrypted ePHI/personal information (SS#, home addresses, salary info, account codes, routing codes, etc.) via an email message?
• An employee was buying and selling AK 47's while at work?
• If your M&A information and pre-public legal documents were being leaked?
• An employee is using a Peer-2-Peer (music and file sharing) client and is inadvertently exposing your proprietary information to millions of other Peer-2-Peer users?

Each webinar will last 90 minutes. FS-ISAC dues-paying members can attend for the low price of $100 per webinar and Basic and Non-members and attend for $200. Register and attend all 3 and save 10%!
