Today,
information security is one of the most important
and exploding industries. More and more individuals
and companies are hanging out their shingle indicating
that they too provide vulnerability assessments
and security testing. Yet every security professional
has had to teach themselves the technologies,
issues, and concepts of information security,
meaning that most information security practices
are carried out in a subjective, qualitative,
and inconsistent manner.
Shon Harris, security consultant
and best-selling author, recognizes that there
is a need to help the information security industry
become more mature, consistent, and predictable,
and to provide companies with innovative educational
tools and solutions. She founded Logical Security
in 2003 and assembled an unparalleled team of
security experts to develop the curriculum and
labs to help companies acquire the skills to confront
and combat today's complex security and compliance
issues. And she created a new teaching methodology
designed to instill in-depth knowledge.
Logical Security is deeply involved
with industry movements to help standardize and
quantify today's security practices. Our team
is developing useful programs and tools that will
help consulting companies, internal security groups,
government agencies, and more carry out the best
risk assessment and analysis methodologies. These
tools will help shape and guide the standardization
process in the information security field.
Our Mission
Logical Security is committed
to being a leader and visionary in the movement
to elevate information security from a black art
to a disciplined, quantitative science and become
a more established, coherent, and dependable industry.
Logical Security is also dedicated to providing
private and public sector enterprises with proactive
solutions to mitigate the security threats of
the 21st century.
