San Diego Chapter Event

(ISC)2 San Diego,
 
Please join us for our May chapter meeting and presentation.  Mike Bertram, one of our own (ISC)2 San Diego members will be presenting on using the NIST Cyber Security Framework to Improve Contract Security Requirements.  With many of us dealing with contracts and other third-party agreements, this is an especially timely discussion.  The meeting and presentation will be Thursday, May 10th from 6-8PM, at the University of Phoenix.   As always, (ISC)2 members will receive 2 hours of CPEs.  Following the meeting, we'll continue the conversation at a no-host social. 
 
Location: UoP 9645 Granite Ridge Dr. Classroom 107 & 108, San Diego, CA 92123
 
Topic: Using the NIST Cyber Security Framework to Improve Contract Security Requirements
 
Summary:
Organizations have understood the need to address the cybersecurity of their systems for a number of years and this can be seen in the inclusion of cybersecurity requirements in contracts for bid, but many organizations still struggle with ensuring such requirements represent a comprehensive, holistic and lifecycle approach indicative of a robust Cybersecurity program. This presentation presents a method of organizing contract requirements based on the cybersecurity framework published by the National Institute of Sciences and Technology (NIST). The results of an analysis of publicly available RFPs in the surface Transportation sector is discussed to illustrate the need for adopting such a method. Due to the sensitive nature of the subject matter and potential for misuse of the information, no data has been included which would identify the RFPs and system owners to avoid exposing them to unnecessary risk.
