ISSA LA gets some press

Our very own Stan Stahl has been quoted in the LA Business Journal:

It seems starting Internet security companies has become something of a gold rush, according to Stan Stahl, chief executive of L.A. cybersecurity firm Citadel Information Group and president of the Information Systems Security Association.

“In the last year, all of a sudden this industry has taken off,” Stahl said. “Legally, anyone can hang up a shingle and say they are a computer security expert.”

This is in an announcement for a new independent information security firm headed by Hemu Nigam called SSP Blue.

A new infosec boutique isn't in itself so newsworthy - but the mention of ISSA along with some positive business prognostications about infosec in general make the article worth a read.
