BENEFITS OF ATTENDING
Part 1: Successful Information Security Manager/Leadership Workshop (Day 1)
Effective Leadership from the management team is a key feature of a positive
information security culture as it determines how everybody else in the organization
will view and act upon safety issues.
Managing information security and managing information security teams is
sometimes a challenge in many organizations. Maintaining strong information
security is one of the major challengers in today’s world and it requires strong
leadership and management skills. Although many think that leaders are born, not
made, anyone can be a better leader.

advantage of the new opportunities available. Likewise, unscrupulous individuals are
also exploiting the situation to collect & steal data from companies & their customers.
Information security is therefore critical for today's modern business models.
Organizations must be prepared to take crucial steps to strengthen their IT
infrastructure from both internal & external threats.
Organizations must look to develop a security network that enhances business
operations while improving its security position. Successful security architecture
combines a mix of the latest policies & practices, technology, and a robust awareness
program.
This intensive training workshop addresses the latest concerns on IT infrastructure
and security. Participants will develop key skills and core competencies that will allow
them to meet the ever-changing security demands of the 21st century.
