Security Technology Executive

SECURITY TECHNOLOGY & DESIGN IS NOW SECURITY TECHNOLOGY EXECUTIVE!

WHY? Because our new title fits the message!

When Security Technology & Design was launched in 1991, the vision was to celebrate the emerging integrated technology market and its applications. A lot has changed. Since then, our publication has been the first to incorporate the business equation and enterprise risk management topics into the mainstream security lexicon.

While competitive magazines give lip service to the new paradigm of business principles driving security strategies, this publication has built its foundation on that message. Our subscribers have told us they need help as the industry goes through this transitional phase. There is a critical need to address the expanding integration of traditional and information security functions. Security executives understand that they must ensure that board and senior executives pay attention to critical security-related issues and how a comprehensive approach to security can protect the enterprise.

Each month Security Technology Executive will continue to bring you highly focused editorial written by the most respected consultants, integrators and practitioners in the security field. We have been the voice of the security industry for 18 years and that will never change!
