Our January session, “Technology and the Auditor,” had excellent attendance and an excellent speaker. John Gatto of Health Care Service Corporation (HCSC) in Chicago, IL, shared his 40+ years of experience conducting and managing IT Audits over a wide variety of topics. We were entertained and educated. Thank you John!
Early bird sign-ups are up for March, April and May. We still have a few spots available for our session in February. Hurry and sign up for the February session. Brian Kelley will discuss how to set up the entire environment so that our SQL servers are secure. In March we will have a full day session on Introduction to Computer Forensics. In late April, Ken Cutler will teach us over a full day “Taking the Mystery Out of Technical Audits of Network Security,” plus we will follow that up with a social event to honor our chapter's 30th Birthday and honor our past chapter presidents. On May 10th, we will co-host with the Columbia branch of the ACFE and the Palmetto Chapter of the IIA and learn from one the world’s experts in linguistic lie detection – Ms. Nejolla Korris. On June 6th, we are currently planning a session on IT Risk. Hope to see you there!
