ISACA, Infosecurity Group Partner on North American Information Security Event Launch

November 15, 2018

ISACA, the leading global association for IT audit, risk, governance and security professionals, and Infosecurity Group, Europe’s leading information security event, are partnering to produce the most progressive information security event in North America.

Infosecurity ISACA North America Expo and Conference will debut Nov. 20-21 in New York City’s Javits Convention Center 20-21.

The event will leverage ISACA’s Cybersecurity Nexus (CSX) community and solutions with Infosecurity Group, Reed Exhibition’s immersive event series staged worldwide for the infosecurity industry.

ISACA will bring experience developed since the 2015 launch of its CSX Conferences, expert workshop series, certification preparation sessions, and latest developments related to the CSX Training Platform, all to the new event programming.

Infosecurity, which entered the North American conference arena in 2017, will build on its strengths in industry expositions, media, immersive learning and leadership networks.

Across workshop, conference programs and exhibition, the first-time 2019 event is expected to draw more than 2,000 attendees and more than 120 exhibitors. Professionals can gain a range of CPE for attending the conference and associated events.

“Many in ISACA’s global professional community already hold Infosecurity’s portfolio in high regard and attend Infosec events,” said Gary Van Prooyen, ISACA Vice President of Marketing and Communications.

He added, “By partnering with Infosecurity in a wholly new enterprise, and launching this event in our 50th anniversary year, ISACA will deliver expanded programming, opportunities and incredible experiences to professionals and enterprises facing ever-increasing information and cybersecurity challenges.”

“Infosecurity event attendees, and ISACA’s professionals worldwide, are on the information and cyber front lines, implementing the latest technologies, building the cybersecurity workforce in critical demand today and tomorrow,” said John Hyde, director of Infosecurity North America.

He added, “By coming together behind one comprehensive conference and exhibition experience, Infosecurity and ISACA will set the standard for a spectrum of attendees seeking solutions, innovations, and expertise--from practical advice to leadership inspiration.”

In anticipation of the event partnership in 2019, ISACA experts participated in the Infosecurity North America Conference and Expo that was held this week, also at the Javits Center in New York City.
