The topic summary according to the HTCIA Ottawa website:

In order to foster innovation, the culture of a university environment must support the principles of academic freedom and the sharing of information. The traditional principles of IT security (e.g. control of information assets) are often directly opposed to this concept. This presentation will examine the unique issues and challenges associated with managing? IT security in the University environment, and will also discuss the non-traidtional approaches that must be employed to improve IT security in a University.

The speaker will be Jamie Campbell, CISSP, Manager of Information Security and Operating Platforms at Carleton University. We’re very much looking forward to having Jamie speak.

Even if you are unable to come to see Jamie speak on March 2, 2010 please drop by the new HTCIA Ottawa website to check out the new look and feel. I think you’ll agree that the design and implementation team did a great job!
