Michael Dahn, CEO of Volubis, Inc., will be presenting at the InfraGard National Conference in Washington D.C. His presentation will be in the Regulatory Compliance track with the title “Compliance Nation & Credit Card Security”. His bio is listed on the site and the presentation overview is listed here.

Research shows that today more than ever information security budgets are allotted towards compliance. The variety of compliance requirements is a collection of alphabet soup and yet the number of security breaches continues to grow. In 2005, there were more publicized data security breaches than any year prior, and companies still struggle to understand the industry requirements. Everyone is looking to their neighbor to interpret and understand what they need to do to comply without focusing on how to stay secure. This presentation provides an overview of national and global information security compliance requirements and demystifies those specific to the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard (DSS). It will explain in clear terms what the intent is of each requirement and how to understand things such as intent of controls, scoping & sampling, and compensating controls.
