The International Security Management Association (ISMA) has returned to Boston, the city of its birth, to celebrate its 25th Anniversary at the Fairmont Copley Hotel.
165 chief security officers (CSOs) from around the globe were welcomed to Boston by State Attorney General Martha Coakley who reinforced the need for close cooperation between the public and private sectors.
The meeting is discussing issues of the moment, which include global fraud trends, employee integrity, and cyber crime. Leading thinkers on these subjects who have addressed the meeting include: Professor Joseph Badaracco, Dean of the Harvard Business School, Judge Louis Freeh, former Director of the FBI, Ronald Plesco, CEO of the National Cyber Forensics and Training Alliance (NCFTA), and Ronald Schouten, Director of the Law and Psychiatry Service at Massachusetts General Hospital.
