Information Security

My InfoTech Journal: Information Security Information Security is always a very interesting domain for discussion.  Over the years, Information Security has evolved as a domain that requires more and more stringent security controls in order to comply with growing compliance requirements and most importantly to protect corporate sensitive data, confidential, personal information, and other critical data. There are several Information Security Standards or Frameworks available in the industry to choose from.  But there is no one standard that can claim the title of being an all-in-one package solution. So if you are into Information Security compliance, you need to understand your organization to know what standards will best fit your compliance requirement.  In some cases, you will have to implement combinations of industry standards for your compliance governance program. Back in the days, I was involved in an outsourcing project as an Account Security Officer (ASO) for a large corpo
