Mentoring & training

We offer a unique ‘mentoring’ service for those entering information security and IT audit management roles for the first time, or facing challenging opportunities.  In return for a retainer or a simple hourly fee, we can provide both moral and practical support to such individuals on a personal basis.  We can help you in all sorts of practical ways such as:

  • Specifying, justifying and launching security projects;
  • Selecting security tools;
  • Getting middle to senior management on-board with your plans for an Information Security Management System;
  • Auditing an individual application system, development project, department/function, business unit or an entire global organization (we’ve done the lot);
  • Assessing information security risks and developing information security strategies;
  • Making significant career choices, polishing your CV/résumé, marketing yourself and preparing for job interviews;
  • Specifying job descriptions, advertising vacancies, selecting candidates, interviewing and appointing information security and IT audit staff.

In conjunction with Les Bell Associates and ALC Training, we also offer CISSP fast-track training courses based on (ISC)2’s Common Body of Knowledge in the South Pacific.  ALC’s one-week CISSP revision course is intensive, based on the presumption that students will have already studied the materials beforehand.  Please contact ALC Training directly for the course schedules and pricing.

We can develop bespoke training courses, seminar presentations and other awareness activities lasting from about half an hour up to a full week or more, covering any of the areas on which we consult.  Through our NoticeBored security awareness service, we have immediate access to seminar slides, mind maps, case studies and handouts on over 30 topical information security issues and can create new presentation and workshop materials on request (for example ‘security induction’-type sessions covering the basics of information security for a general audience, for managers or for IT professionals).  We can speak authoritatively about security awareness, information security management, IT audit and ISO27k but the nature of our work also keeps us up to date with most other aspects of information security.

We particularly enjoy presenting at security conferences, both public and corporate/in-house security events.  We would be delighted to develop and deliver a creative and inspirational presentation that aligns with your chosen theme, or prepare a whole series of information security activities addressing all levels in the organization from the board room to the shop floor (literally).  Contact us for further details.
