Virtual CyberSec Event for our Members
It was a great event last night, the 22nd of September. We discussed about the latest developments regarding our Chapter, as well as (ISC)². Don’t forget to let your colleagues who are considering switching to the CyberSecurity profession about the new introductory certification CC (https://lnkd.in/deexPzem) and the new Candidate Membership level (https://lnkd.in/dEtnfKEb).
We are grateful to our speakers for presenting thought-provoking content and keeping us all engaged throughout the event.
Thank you Georgios Vernados for presenting some of the latest Cybersec trends.
Thank you also Konstantina Syntila, Antonis Proimadis and Nikos Simos for discussing why firewalls and UTMs are just a small fraction of the -sine qua non- security control set and should be considered as nothing more, especially in the cloudy era we live in and for presenting various other security controls that have become a necessity in the new all-digital environment.
Finally, thank you Panagiotis Rizomiliotis for presenting the latest developments around homomorphic encryption. It seems we are close to actual commercial use and this will revolutionise the way we treat certain risks.
Hosting (ISC)2 Leadership
We were honoured to host (ISC)² leadership at an exclusive event, exchanging ideas about ways to advance the profession, about the future of Chapters and even the future of (ISC)². Thank you for the opportunity, Clar Rosso, Tara Wisniewski and Jon France CISSP!
Active (ISC)2 Hellenic Chapter members were there, experienced professionals both from our Sponsors and from representative market segments, to join the discussion and provide useful insights.
We raised a toast to our Chapter for being awarded this year’s EMEA Chapter Recognition Award. We await for the Award itself to be presented to the Chapter during this year’s (ISC)² Security Congress, so that we can all celebrate for being part of the team that made it possible!
Quiz: Which TV channel was there with us, interviewing (ISC)2 Hellenic Chapter Board Members and (ISC)² leadership? To be continued…

Super CyberKids, Episode #3
The Super CyberKids series is back with a fresh, new episode!
What if personal data protection dates further back in history than we think? What if it could determine the outcome of wars? In the third video of this series, we find out that any personal data we post online, stay there forever. Should anyone gain access to them, he can use them to hurt us, many years after we originally posted them. Any personal data we post render us vulnerable and end up being a Trojan Horse to our personal life and safety.
You want the whole planet to know about it, forever? Just post it on social media!

BOUSSIAS Information Security Conference 2022
We really enjoyed BOUSSIAS Information Security Conference 2022; a lot of interesting talks and many members of (ISC)2 Hellenic Chapter offering thought leadership on contemporary matters, via speeches and discussion panels.
Our Treasurer, Dimitris Georgiou, represented (ISC)2 Hellenic Chapter and gave one of the opening speeches at BOUSSIAS Information Security Conference 2022, offering an overview of major InfoSec trends that are here to stay.
He informed the public about the new (ISC)² entry-level certification and about the fact that UK NARIC has found CISSP to be comparable to an InfoSec postgraduate degree.
He also let the conference participants know that most of (ISC)² certifications have been established as de facto or de jure standards (e.g. U.S. DoD 8140/8570) for establishing one’s knowledge and real-world experience in matters of Information Security.
John ILIADIS also represented our Chapter while presenting the (ISC)2 Cybersecurity Workforce Study that took place during 2021. According to the Study, the global market is looking for 2.72 million InfoSec pros but they are nowhere to be found. Join the ranks!
More info about this 2.72mil gap and the way organisations all over the world are trying to fill this gap can be found in the presentation contained herein and in the Cybersecurity Workforce Study available publicly.
Also, John ILIADIS, moderated a discussion panel of Information Security experts at BOUSSIAS Information Security Conference 2022. The panel discussed the reasons why communication between InfoSec executives and BoDs may be hindered by the subjectivity of qualitative RA along with solutions to overcome this. The panel also discussed ways to facilitate a BoD towards identifying its risk appetite and techniques to reduce the perception gap between InfoSec executives and BoDs regarding the integration of digital resilience in enterprise risk. Moreover, the panel discussed the findings of the recently published European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) Interoperable EU Risk Management Framework Report.
The experienced professionals that participated in the panel and provided valuable and updated information on the aforementioned matters were Lefteris Tzelepis, George Tsinos, Christos Syngelakis , Panagiotis Soulos and Konstantinos Andreopoulos.

Could a teenage football team win a match by spying the social media of their opponents? In the first video of this series, we learn the reason why we should be cautious about the kind and quantity of personal data we share over social media.
Seize the opportunity, while there’s still time for it!

(ISC)² New Year Party!
We had a great time on the 27th of January, at our New Year’s Party; vivid discussions regarding incident response, cyber resilience and upcoming security-related regulations, among others. Cheers to all our members for brainstorming on topics the Chapter should provide more info, during 2022 at our members-only events.
What’s most important, we enjoyed each other’s company, we had fun and we had the opportunity to cut our virtual New Year’s Cake! There were six lucky pennies this year, in the cake 🙂
Our members who won the first three lucky pennies will be receiving exciting gifts on behalf of the Chapter, while the next three pennies brought along a 100% discount coupon for our Chapter’s 1-year membership fee.
Unfortunately, the commemorative photo couldn’t fit us all. A virtual gathering always falls short, compared to a physical one. Hopefully, next year we will have the chance to have our New Year’s Party at an actual physical location, with physical attendance, mingling and enjoying each other’s company.
We wish you a very successfull and secure New Year. Above all, stay safe and healthy!
