We are pleased to share that ISACA (world’s leading association for Information Security, famous for their framework called COBIT) has approved our application for forming an APU-ISACA Student Group. APU-ISACA Student Group is now officially recognized by ISACA International Headquarters. It is the first officially recognized ISACA Student Group in Malaysia.
ISACA Student Groups (ISGs) encourage education beyond the classroom by allowing students to network and learn from each other, and connect with a supportive group of professionals. Upon the establishment of this group, APU is accessible to ISACA’s material, tools as well as a range of other benefits.
Prior to that, as part of the key requirements of forming the group, ISACA has also recognised two of our academic staff (Muhammad Ehsan Rana, Head of School of Computing and Meisam Eslahi, Lecturer of Security and Digital Forensics) as Academic Advocates of APU.
