  Greetings EDUCAUSE Security,



I am pleased to formally announce the 13th annual *Security Professionals
Conference*, which will convene in Minneapolis and online May 4-6, 2015.
This year we are very fortunate to have both renowned author and NSA expert
James Bamford, and Minnesota State’s Chief Information Security Officer
Chris Buse, joining us for our opening and closing keynote sessions.
Discounted “Early Bird” registration is available until April 6, 2015 so I
encourage you to *register now*

With a conference theme of *Back to the Future: What Will the Future of
Information Security Look Like?*, the 2015 program is packed with sessions
on Awareness and Training, Governance, Risk and Compliance, Program
Management, Career Development, as well as two full tracks devoted to
technical sessions. If you or someone on your leadership team is charged
