The academic year 2016/2017 has come to an end

The year 2016/2017 has been an exciting time for the ISACA Student Group. New members joined the group and different activities were carried out. A total of 18 security dialogues took place with speakers from many different organisations: Spotify, the National Defence Radio Establishment (sv. FRA), the Swedish National Forensic Centre, Klarna, KnowIt, Deloitte, DLA Piper…

The ISACA Student Group also participated to study visits and case nights  at different companies (KPMG, PwC, Accenture) as well as visited fairs connected to the industry such as the IP EXPO Nordic.

All of these activities allowed the members to grow their network and get an insight of the Information Security Industry.

In the future, this blog will be updated more often to allow any students interested in Information Student to be informed about our activities.

We hope the coming year will be as rewarding as the previous one !
