About Us
|
|
ISACA started in 1967, when a small group of
individuals with similar jobs—auditing controls in the computer
systems that were becoming increasingly critical to the
operations of their organizations—sat down to discuss the need
for a centralized source of information and guidance in the
field. In 1969, the group formalized, incorporating as the EDP
Auditors Association. In 1976 the association formed an
education foundation to undertake large-scale research efforts
to expand the knowledge and value of the IT governance and
control field. 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.
Today, ISACA’s membership—more than 95,000
strong worldwide—is characterized by its diversity. Members live
and work in more than 160 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.
