The ISACA Pittsburgh Information Security Awareness Day Conference is the premier educational event for Information Systems Audit and Information Security professionals in the Western Pennsylvania area. With a chapter membership of over 600 professionals, the ISACA Pittsburgh Chapter is represented by employees of over 150 companies, academic institutions, and government entities throughout the region.
Thanks in part to corporate and vendor sponsorships, this conference is the top educational value for IS Audit and Cybersecurity professionals in Pittsburgh. Each year the event has grown significantly from the prior year. Over 500 IS Audit and Security professionals from all lines of business in the Tri-State area registered for last year’s event, as well as representatives from other local professional security and audit associations and neighboring ISACA chapters. It is also important to note that our event is attended by many VP, Manager, and Director level personnel that are key decision makers in the IT, IT audit and security departments of their organizations.
ISACA Pittsburgh was nominated for, and won, the 2018 ISACA Innovative Chapter Program Award in the Large Chapter category (301-800 members) for the 2017 InfoSec Conference. This award is presented to only four ISACA chapters globally each year, one from each chapter-size category, to recognize outstanding programs that demonstrate an innovative approach to member engagement, continuing education, or community outreach.
Speaker and Presenter Information
Keynote Speaker: Matthew B. Cox
Matthew B. Cox is a former-licensed mortgage broker and brokerage business owner. He is a nationally recognized expert on white collar crimes, specifically, the creation of synthetic identities, the fraudulent acquisition of credit cards, personal loans, and mortgages, in addition to real-estate scams. He has consulted with both the FBI and the U.S. Secret Service, and, he is also a former-federal inmate.
Mr. CoxÂ’s criminal case received national media attention after he used forgeries, combined with stolen and synthetic identities to bilk America’s biggest banks out of an estimated $55 million. Despite numerous encounters with bank security, state and federal authorities, Mr. Cox narrowly, and quite luckily, avoided capture for nearly a decade. Eventually he topped the Secret Service’s most wanted list, and led the U.S. Marshals, FBI, and the Secret Service on a three-year chase, while jet-setting around the world, and, of course, he continued to commit fraud.
