On November 7 and 8, 2023, ISACA Germany Chapter and dpunkt.verlag GmbH will host the IT-GRC Congress in Munich. Once again, the agenda of the congress will be filled with contributions from ISACA expert groups as well as presentations from selected representatives from industry, business, banks, consulting/IT system houses and institutions. Among those are two of our usd experts.
During the two days, specialists and executives, as well as IT managers and decision-makers, will come together to discuss current developments in the areas of information security, IT auditing, IT governance, compliance and risk management. The congress is also an important opportunity for members of the ISACA Germany Chapter to share the results of their specialist groups and exchange information on new developments in the field.
