About ISACA Los Angeles Chapter
The Los Angeles Chapter is the inaugural chapter of ISACA®. The LA Chapter is a non-profit organization dedicated to the continued development and enhancement of the information systems audit and control profession by providing benefits to its members and to the professional community at large.
Another of ISACA LA's strengths is its chapter network
ISACA has more than 217 chapters establishing in over 190 countries worldwide, and those chapters provide members with education, resource sharing, advocacy, professional networking, and a host of other benefits on a local level.
Since its inception, ISACA has become a pace-setting global organization for information governance, control, security, and audit professionals. Its IS auditing and control standards are followed by practitioners worldwide. Its research pinpoints professional issues challenging its constituents.
ISACA’s membership—more than 150,000 strong worldwide—is characterized by its diversity
Members live and work in more than 190 countries and cover a variety of professional IT-related positions—to name just a few, IS auditor, consultant, educator, IS security professional, regulator, chief information officer and internal auditor. Some are new to the field, others are at middle management levels and still others are in the most senior ranks. They work in nearly all industry categories, including financial and banking, public accounting, government and the public sector, utilities and manufacturing. This diversity enables members to learn from each other, and exchange widely divergent viewpoints on a variety of professional topics. It has long been considered one of ISACA’s strengths. Previously known as the Information Systems Audit and Control Association, ISACA now goes by its acronym only, to reflect the broad range of IT governance professionals it serves.
