It’s that time again for the (ISC)2 Tampa Bay Technology Chapter to host another quarterly meeting. As mentioned in a previous article,  the (ISC)2 Tampa Bay Chapter is a registered 501 (c)3 organization which provides its members with a networking opportunity to share knowledge, exchange resources and collaborate on projects. This forum allows members to have the ability to gain a sense of fellowship with colleagues in their profession. They will also be able to network and exchange ideas with fellow (ISC)2 credential holders and other information security professionals within the West-Central Florida area.

Academic Department Chair Laura Malave, of St. Petersburg College’s College of Computer & Information Technology (CCIT) attends these quarterly meetings. Since she teaches IT Security courses for CCIT, these meetings provide an excellent opportunity to keep abreast of industry trends, network with industry professionals and collaborate on projects. As part of her involvement with the Tampa Bay Chapter, Malave volunteers her time as a planning committee member for the Tampa BSides Information Security Conference. Involvement with organizations such as this help professors such as Malave bring real world experience to the classroom.

The next quarterly event will be held on:

Saturday, February 20

10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

4401 Himes Avenue, #175
