Certificate Course “Infor­mation Security Officer for Credit Insti­tu­tions” — May 7 to 10, 2019

The German Banking Act (KWG) and MaRisk require banks to ensure the integrity, avail­ability, authen­ticity and confi­den­tiality of data in their IT systems and processes. But secure and efficient IT is also essential for the economic success of a bank.

The new “Banking Super­vision Require­ments for IT” (BAIT) formulate concrete expec­ta­tions. Among other things, the Federal Financial Super­visory Authority (BaFin) has issued a guideline calling for the new function of the “Infor­mation Security Officer ” to be set up. He or she controls the infor­mation security process and reports directly to the management.

In cooper­ation with Bank-Verlag, SRC has already success­fully completed three certificate courses for the “Infor­mation Security Officer (ISB) for credit insti­tu­tions”. After the great response and the continuing demand, we are pleased that the Bank-Verlag has made another date possible for this four-day certificate course.

From 7 to 10 May 2019, you will once again have the oppor­tunity of further training in Cologne to become an “Infor­mation Security Officer (ISB) for credit institutions”.

In a team with Heinrich Lottmann (TARGOBANK AG & Co. KGaA) and Alexandros Manakos (HSBC Trinkaus & Burkhardt AG) the SRC experts Sandro Amendola, Florian Schumann and Randolf Skerka will give a lecture on the norms and standards according to ISO and IT-Grund­schutz, as well as on all legal/regulatory require­ments relevant for you as an ISB. In addition, the topics IT Risks and Contin­gency Management as well as Business Conti­nuity Management will be discussed.

After passing the final exami­nation, you will receive the certificate “Infor­mation Security Officer for Credit Institutions”.

On 6 May 2019 you will also have the optional oppor­tunity to acquire the basic IT knowledge required for the course in a one-day intensive seminar in Cologne prior to the event. This course deals with basics, terms, encryption and IT security techniques in infor­mation technology.
