To clarify the first note about resources now available from the 2017 Security Professionals Conference — if speakers provided slides or other materials, they would be available under “Resources & Downloads” from that session’s agenda listing. For example, Jack Daniel’s slides are available here: https://events.educause.edu/security-professionals-conference/2017/agenda/the-past-present-and-future-of-infosec--sponsored-by-aegis-identity-software You can find additional resources by searching the agenda and selecting the sessions you are interested in (you can search by day – track sessions were held on Tuesday and Wednesday – or you can search by keyword, session type, or track): https://events.educause.edu/security-professionals-conference/2017/agenda Note that you do not have to be a registered attendee in order to access these resources.

(Note: This is a re-posting from the CIO list.) First, we’d like to acknowledge the 2017 program committee for planning the 15th annual Security Professionals Conference. This year’s event — held May 1-3 in Denver — was a big success with excellent keynotes, seminars, and track sessions, as well as record-breaking attendance (over 650 participants)! Resources are now available for review. If your campus uses the Higher Education Cloud Vendor Assessment Tool<https://library.educause.edu/resources/2016/10/higher-education-cloud-vendor-assessment-tool> (HECVAT), please note that a new version was published in May along with a “lightweight” version that provides a shorter set of questions for review in low-risk situations. Some additional resources include: * EDUCAUSE Information Security Almanac 2017<https://library.educause.edu/resources/2017/5/the-educause-information-security-almanac-2017>* * 2017 Trends and Technologies: Security, Identity, Privacy, and GRC<https://library.educause.edu/resources/2017/4/2017-trends-and-technologies-security-identity-privacy-and-grc>* * Recordings from two recent HEISC webinars on phishing<https://library.educause.edu/resources/2017/4/heisc-webinar-chapter-1-getting-your-campus-ready-for-a-phishing-awareness-campaign> and risk<http://www.educause.edu/security> * SANS 2017 Security Awareness Report<https://securingthehuman.sans.org/report> * New guest blogs in the EDUCAUSE Review Security Matters column<http://er.educause.edu/columns/security-matters> Finally, considering registering for the August 9 extended online event, Metrics Mania! Using Metrics to Bolster Your Higher Ed InfoSec Program<https://events.educause.edu/webinar/2017/metrics-mania-using-metrics-to-bolster-your-higher-education-information-security-program>. We hope that you and your team have a productive summer. As you’re wrapping up projects or diving into new ones, please let us know how HEISC might be able to help with new resources or content! Thank you, Sharon Pitt and Mike Corn, HEISC Co-Chairs www.educause.edu/security<http://www.educause.edu/security> *Starting July 1, access to ECAR publications like these will be included in EDUCAUSE membership. If your organization has already renewed for 2017-18, you and everyone at your organization has access now.
