Strategy to Reality

Attended by over 6,000 security professionals from coast to coast, IP3’s renowned seminar series, “Strategy to Reality”, provides the industry’s leading security professionals with the most timely, relevant and comprehensive coverage of today’s issues.

Strategy to Reality by IP3 addresses the issues on the cutting edge of compliance, information assurance, human capital and risk management. As CEOs, executives, managers and IT professionals, you are held accountable to a variety of information security laws and regulations. Strategy to Reality addresses how to implement the security standards necessary to ensure compliance with these laws and regulations, especially when faced with new technologies. The strategy is to address new technology deployment rather than secure last year’s systems with last year’s tools. The reality is that as new technologies are introduced and adopted, new threats will appear. The 14 Essential Body of Knowledge (EBK) domains established by the Department of Homeland Security will be addressed, along with the top security issues for 2009.

IP3 is pioneering the way in educational seminars by providing you with the most advanced way to stay ahead of the most pressing security issues. By providing you with a Apple iPod Touch and our Podcast Library, you can take security with you anytime, anywhere, anyway!

Phoenix, AZ: "I want to take this opportunity to let you and your staff know of my sincere appreciation for your superb security seminar here in Arizona. Frankly, your presentation was indicative of what is required in INFOSEC circles here in Arizona (increased awareness and communications within the sector, lucent and erudite presentations), and I am sure in other environs as well.  I will certainly make our clients and resources within my organization aware of your firms excellent work here the past two days.  Please let us know of new offerings from your company, as you folks will certainly be the first training firm we will look to for new certifications and continuing education as well."

Tacoma, WA: "I appreciate the time and energy you put into the seminar and your perspectives were enlightening. I look forward to attending another seminar of yours in the future."

San Francisco, CA: "Excellent seminar, very comprehensive and thought-provoking, lot of things to think about. Also great vendor demos, seriously considering purchasing two of them."

Chicago, IL: "Excellent workshop, the content and materials were up to date and very informative.  Also, the brief class discussions during and in between your lecture were useful in real application. I recommended this workshop to a friend who is also sitting for the CISSP."

Cleveland, OH: "The presenter demonstrated great command of the information and was able to speak authoritatively about the topics. This seminar really highlighted the concerns of business entities and principles of mitigation."

Seattle, WA: "I really appreciated that the content clearly addressed issues and solutions - even from the vendors.  They spoke mostly to the problem, not just sales info about their product."

Dallas, TX: "It is hard to determine in advance the relevance of professional seminars. IP3 hit the nail on the head - not a single minute wasted! Great job! Very good presentation, presenter knowledgeable and enthusiastic."

Phoenix, AZ: "The presenter was exceptionally knowledgeable, and was able to discuss the topics from a legal, political, business, economic and technical viewpoint adding great value to the presentation."

Los Angeles, CA: "I think your security seminar is very informative, upbeat, non-glaze-over entertaining as it is worth the time and effort to be there.  I totally enjoyed the interaction with the other students as much as I did contributing to the knowledge base in the room."

Chicago, IL: "I enjoyed this learning opportunity and will recommend this course and certification to those seeking the security profession. Ken is a great presenter & lecturer. Does a good job of covering massive materials without losing anything."

Strategy to Reality Content

“There’s no better way to say it – the game has changed and it’s NO GAME. Our internet based economy is openly exposed and our most trusted systems are routinely being compromised.” There is no more business as usual.

During this two-day seminar for CEOs, executives, managers and IT professionals, will learn how the technologies, IT security threats and deployment environments have changed; even since the beginning of 2009! Our ALL NEW 2010 Strategy to Reality is returning to some of the nation’s top universities again with both new content and a unique, new approach.

The workshop starts with an in-depth analysis of Aurora. Ken will present real time coverage of the most significant exploit of this century. According to McAfee’s blog posts which provided some of the first disclosed data, “the world had changed”. They went on to call this a “watershed member in Cyber-security”. Core issues will be addressed in five case studies addressing critical current events, their technology implications and our recommended policy and practice responses. This three step process will give you critical insights into today’s most critical issues.

After a detailed situational analysis we’ll turn to updates on the state of Risk Management and consider the full spectrum of issues including new certifications, changes in corporate management structures and a discussion of where IT fits in to the general enterprise risk management process. Clearly, what we were doing at DoD, Google, Adobe (and I use them because I’m certain they were doing a BETTER job than the rest of us) didn’t work.

We’ve got to change the game!
