Come spend an evening with the Triad of NC ISSA Chapter as we hear the strategy that Jason Cox is following in evangelizing information security awareness at High Point Regional and the UNC Health Care System. HIPAA has specific requirements for security awareness, but the methods and practices Jason is using have applicability to all commercial and non-profit organizations as well as individuals.

Agenda

1. Meet, greet, dinner & network (6 pm-6:45 pm)

2. Chapter business (6:45 pm to 7 pm)     

3. Presentations (7 p.m. to 8 p.m.):

In this month’s presentation, we hope you will be able to take away some valuable insights and suggestions on how to improve the security awareness in your organization. While CyberSecurity Awareness month is meant to provide a focus on Information Security in October, CyberSecurity Awareness is an ongoing process and is a responsibility that all information security professionals should accept throughout their career.

Jason Cox earned the CISSP certification and is a Senior Application Systems Analyst for Information Security assigned to the Entity Information Security Team at the UNC Health Care System.
