SIAF Seminar: The Consumerisation of IT
Friday 24th February, Stirling Enterprise Park, Stirling
As the consumerisation of IT remains a hot topic for IT departments, due to the growing popularity of products such as the Apple iPad and Smartphones, we will discuss the benefits organisations can gain from adopting technologies targeted towards the end consumer, while looking at the security issues and counter measures to reduce the risk to your company.
The day’s events will consist of a seminar in the morning and an open round table session in the afternoon. I am delighted to announce that we will be joined by two of the UKs leading security vendors, Aruba Networks (www.arubanetworks.com) and Symantec (www.symantec.com) who will provide presentations.

SIAF are delighted to deliver its June seminar during the first day of the UKs largest Information Assurance conference, the National Information Security Conference (www.nisc.org.uk).
As the boundaries between our work and home environment disappear, we must ask ourselves how do you maintain the security of your corporate network? Is your corporate network still your network and how much do you put into the cloud?

Attendance at the June SIAF meeting is free to members of SIAF and also to delegates of the National Information Security Conference.
