Anton Stiglic

I am an information security manager with a strong background in information theory and a keen interest in the business aspects involved around IT decisions. I have been involved in security in the IT industry since 1999, and in academia since 1996. I have a B.Sc in mathematics-computer science and an M.Sc in information theory (cryptology) from Université de Montréal, and working on an MBA.

My areas of professional interests include:

Informational assets and IT staff management;
IT security governance;

The term governance is most often abused these days and thus misunderstood. More precisely what I refer to here is information security governance based on

Leadership from C-level management - An official CISO;
A framework of security policies, standards, guidelines and procedures;
Formaly defined and implemented security processes, such as security incident response, risk management, vulnerability management, SDLC, awareness, etc.;
A defined structure of roles and responsibilities covering all security processes;
Defined metrics allowing the appreciation of the effectiveness and efficiency of security processes;
Continual improvement;

all of the above considering business and regulation requirements as well as the culture that is peculiar to the organisation.

Threat and risk assessment and risk management;
Security requirements;
Security in conception (architecture) and development (coding);
Cryptology (all aspects);
Teaching;
Privacy;
Physical security.
