Members live and work in more than 160 countries and cover a variety of professional IT-related positions — to name just a few, Information Security (IS) auditor, consultant, educator, IS security professional, regulator, chief information officer and internal auditor. Some are new to the field, others are at middle management levels and still others are in the most senior ranks.
