Acentron to sponsor Greenville Area Security Professionals

July 31, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
Government compliance requirements and consumer outcry have continued to heat up demand for corporations to improve their information security practices. The field is fast-changing with new threats appearing all the time. In an attempt to help upstate South Carolina's business community prepare themselves for the threats that are pervasive in the information economy, an association of Greenville Area Security Professionals (GASP) was born. The group meets the last Thursday of each month in Greenville, SC, to discuss physical, information, and network issues. Many of the attendees are CISSP certified and many are hoping to achieve that certification and thereby better prepare themselves to help their companies.

In support of the organization and its mission, Acentron has offered to act as sponsor for the upcoming GASP meeting. "An informed and educated IT community minimizes the chances that the next consumer data disaster will be in our backyard," says Acentron President Dan Springer. "We are delighted to lend a hand."
