In her new role, Stephanie will work closely with the new Marketing/Communications Manager, Salina Wuttke, as well as assist the Account Managers and our Sales department in ensuring we continue to grow our business toward a national footprint.

Last but not least, please join us in congratulating Tom Hinkel for becoming Director of Compliance for Safe Systems.

Salina's position will play a key role in the development of Safe Systems' comprehensive marketing strategies and campaigns through indirect channels, trade shows, PR and online marketing communications to achieve increased revenue and a national footprint.

CPEs
Safe Systems is now certified by the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) to award CPE credits for training classes and webinars! Please let us know if you would like a CPE certificate for training you attend.

SAS 70
Safe Systems is proud to announce that we are currently undergoing our SAS 70 Type I Certification. SAS 70 stands for Statement on Auditing Standards and is a third party audit assessment, report, and certification. Most importantly, it is a testament to our best processes and procedures for security and the effectiveness of our customer-related controls. We will receive our official certification in July.

Users Group Meetings
Safe Systems has held four users group meetings since our first meeting last December, including our "first annual" users group meeting in Montgomery, Alabama. Everyone that attended our meetings contributed and gained a lot. We have already enacted several changes, such as switching ticket email notifications to when an engineer begins work on the ticket, based off feedback gathered. Expect us to make more changes in the future! Don't worry if you were unable to attend our meetings this go-around, we will hold them again. And remember, we are always willing to hear feedback, whether via our users group meetings or email.

Risk & Security Class
New in 2009 is Safe Systems' third Information Security class - Risk and Security. Pulling information from the entire FFIEC IT Handbook, this two-day class will examine and discuss risk as it relates to information security and aims to provide financial institution employees with an understanding of how to identify, measure, and control risk. We'll give you real-world examples of how to perform Risk Assessments and Business Impact Analysis and much more. The class is meant for all financial institution employees that deal with risk, including Network Administrators and Information Security Officers (ISOs). This new class will be offered this July in Charleston, SC and again in September and November in Alpharetta, GA.

Charleston Training Classes
Safe Systems' Education Department will be headed to Charleston, South Carolina for the first time this July. Our three Information Security classes will be taught during the week of July 19. To register for these classes, please visit our registration page.
