PLAINSBORO, N.J., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- SAI Global, a
leading provider of governance, risk and compliance (GRC)
solutions, has partnered with the Information Systems Security
Association, Inc. (ISSA) to increase parental awareness about
internet safety for children. The joint project utilizes SAI
Global's interactive, activity-based learning product, the Rocket
Launch Infogram, to guide parents through discussions with their
children about Internet Safety. Delivered via DVD, the Internet
Safety for Children project provides necessary information to
parents for instruction on the possible dangers that exist on the
Internet. "SAI Global values our partnership with ISSA and
appreciates the opportunity to support them on this important
project with opportunities to impact families throughout northern
Texas," said Andy Wyszkowski, Global Head of Compliance for SAI
Global. "We share ISSA's dedication in providing resources to raise
security and data privacy consciousness." The project addresses the
types of information children may access, what they're revealing
about themselves and the precautions parents should take to prepare
children for the cyber world. "This is a slight departure from the
work we're currently doing," says Kenneth Do of PepsiCo Information
Security Group (ISG) and Treasurer for the ISSA North Texas
Chapter. "However, news reports indicate the urgency of the problem
and together with SAI Global we were able to use our expertise to
create an overall awareness." ISSA will release the DVD at the
Secure World Conference this week in Dallas, Texas. Media Inquiries
