CSSA to set up Computer Crime Special Interest Group

February 2001 Security Services & Risk Management

The growing number of incidents of computer-related crime has lead the CSSA to establish a Special Interest Group (SIG) on Computer Crime, Computer Forensics and Computer Investigation. The new group, which will fall under the auspices of the East London Chapter of the CSSA, will be chaired by ex-policeman and Chief Forensic Investigator for the Heath Special Investigation Unit, Jason Jordaan.

The SIG is still in its infancy, but steps are already underway to ensure the full establishment of the Group during the course of the year. It is hoped that the establishment of the East London Computer Crime SIG will lead the way for other CSSA Chapters and thus provide the IT sector and private individuals around the country with the right support and advice when faced with incidents of computer crime.

For further details contact Jason Jordaan, e-mail: jason_jordaan@hotmail.com
