Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Primary sources Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox organization ISACA is an international professional association focused on IT (information technology) governance. On its IRS filings, it is known as the Information Systems Audit and Control Association, although ISACA now goes by its acronym only.[1][2][3] ISACA currently offers 8 certification programs, as well as other micro-certificates.

History

ISACA originated in United States in 1967,[2] when a group of individuals working on auditing controls in computer systems started to become increasingly critical of the operations of their organizations. They identified a need for a centralized source of information and guidance in the field. In 1969, Stuart Tyrnauer, an employee of the (later) Douglas Aircraft Company, incorporated the group as the Шаблон:Abbr Auditors Association (EDPAA).[4] Tyrnauer served as the body's founding chairman for the first three years. In 1976 the association formed an education foundation to undertake large-scale research efforts to expand the knowledge of and value accorded to the fields of governance and control of information technology.

The association became the Information Systems Audit and Control Association in 1994.[5]

In March 2016, ISACA bought the CMMI Institute, which is behind the Capability Maturity Model Integration.[7]

In January 2020, ISACA updated and refreshed its look and digital presence, introducing a new logo.[8]

The CSX-P, ISACA's first cybersecurity certification, was introduced in the summer of 2015. It is one of the few certifications that require the individual to work in a live environment, with real problems, to obtain a certification. Specifically, the exam puts test takers in a live network with a real incident taking place. The student's efforts to respond to the incident and fix the problem results in the type of score awarded.[18]
