SAI Global Partners with ISSA North Texas Chapter

PLAINSBORO, N.J., Nov. 10  /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- SAI Global, a leading provider of governance, risk and compliance (GRC) solutions, has partnered with the Information Systems Security Association, Inc. (ISSA) to increase parental awareness about internet safety for children.

The joint project utilizes SAI Global's interactive, activity-based learning product, the Rocket Launch Infogram, to guide parents through discussions with their children about Internet Safety.  Delivered via DVD, the Internet Safety for Children project provides necessary information to parents for instruction on the possible dangers that exist on the Internet.

"SAI Global values our partnership with ISSA and appreciates the opportunity to support them on this important project with opportunities to impact families throughout northern Texas," said Andy Wyszkowski, Global Head of Compliance for SAI Global.  "We share ISSA's dedication in providing resources to raise security and data privacy consciousness."

The project addresses the types of information children may access, what they're revealing about themselves and the precautions parents should take to prepare children for the cyber world.  "This is a slight departure from the work we're currently doing," says Kenneth Do of PepsiCo Information Security Group (ISG) and Treasurer for the ISSA North Texas Chapter.  "However, news reports indicate the urgency of the problem and together with SAI Global we were able to use our expertise to create an overall awareness."

ISSA will release the DVD at the Secure World Conference this week in Dallas, Texas.
