A reminder to all of our members. HTCIA is a private organization that draws its membership from many different business sectors. All meetings are private and should only be attended if you are a current member, member of the law enforcement community, or have received pre-approval to sit-in on a meeting from an HTCIA officer. If you are not a member of the law enforcement community or have not yet been approved for membership by HTCIA, you will need to get approval before attending our meetings. Due to the nature of the topics we discuss, members are reminded that no unauthorized recording of any type is permitted. If you have questions or need further clarification, please contact one of the HTCIA Officers.

10AM - NOON
Regular WA HTCIA Meeting
Topic: Data Lifecycle Security
Instructor/Speaker: Ernie Hayden CISSP CEH, Information Security Officer, Group Health Cooperative

An information security officer's "To Do" list is not only long but it is getting longer every day. We have different lists or categories to consider during our day-to-day efforts to protect our organizations.

These lists can include such things as:
1) ISC2 - CISSP 10 Domains of Information Security
2) ISO 17799 or ISO 27001 Categories for Information Security
3) NIST Security Standards

As a result of some of these frustrations, Ernie Hayden has started
building a model called "Data Centric Security" that looks at data from
birth to death and to all the events that occur in between.
