Suspension of In-Person Chapter Meetings

By Beth Letson posted 12 Aug, 2021
In light of current data and after doing due diligence, the ISACA Huntsville Chapter Board has made the decision to suspend in-person chapter events for the foreseeable future due to the current Covid Delta variant transmission risk. I know some will disagree with this decision, and I understand your concern. However, when I think of the most important lesson that I have learned from ISACA and from its axiom in management (e.g., CISM), it is that in all things we say and do day-to-day to secure, maintain systems and grow organizations, human life is always the right answer . As David Samuelson, ISACA’s CEO said, “People are our top priority.” Our members ...

2021 New Year Message from Membership Director

By Janice Dyer posted 31 Dec, 2020
It is time to say good-bye to 2020. Many would agree that 2020 has been life-changing and emotionally challenging, but as we continue to move forward and drive into 2021, we can wave to 2020 in the rear-view mirror with a sense of hope. First and foremost, we would like to thank all of our Huntsville Chapter Members for your continued support during a challenging year. We faced many changes but our most impactful was converting from our monthly in-person Lunch-n-Learn to an Online Live session. During the process we lost our ability to network. We are working to rectify this in 2021. In addition, we are starting some new initiatives in 2021. She Leads Tech ...

COVID-19 has thrown several monkey wrenches into our processes and procedures, but I was always told “What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger.” So, as we look to the ...
