Join GovLoop:

We have exciting news—FISSEA has joined GovLoop and we want you to join our group!

While the FISSEA listserv has been around for over 10 years, it’s time we capitalize on new listserv technology—social networking. We started a FISSEA discussion group on the government’s social networking site, GovLoop (www.govloop.com). Note: The FISSEA listserv will continue to exist, but will be used for announcements only.

Please join GovLoop and our FISSEA group for lively discussions about the information security awareness, training, education, and certification environment. This new "FISSEA Community of Interest" can use the GovLoop FISSEA discussion area to post questions and share information.

Follow these easy steps to join our FISSEA GovLoop Community. Our FISSEA Executive Board Social Networking Guru, Al Lewis, has volunteered to assist if you have any questions or problems registering (email: aljlewis@gmail.com 301-706-5262).
