ISC2 Bylaws Voting Happening Now

Voting for changes to ISC2 bylaws opened yesterday. If you’re an ISC2 member, you can log into your ISC2 account portal and vote on the proposed changes (you should have received an email from ISC2 inviting you to vote).

The Securityzed perspective is that these changes, overwhelmingly, are awful, and we urge you to vote Against. (While there are elements that are sensible, the majority of the changes and terrible.)

Well....this sucks. Court says that room scans can't be used for online testing.

I have to imagine that this particular ruling is only applicable to government schools— the case was about the Fourth Amendment freedom from unreasonable search and seizure (by the government), and the school in question was a college run by the state of Ohio. But if this impacts online testing in general (if the specific case becomes precedent for general applicability), private testing services (such as those that provide certification testing) might restrict or end online options. And this would a true shame: the convenience and other benefits of remote testing is a boon to our world, not something to fear.
