The Australian Information Security Association (AISA) Incorporated was formed in 1999 and incorporated in 2001 under the name of Information Security Interest Group (ISIG) Incorporated. In 2006 a name change was introduced to reflect the professional standing of the organisation.

Branches exist in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Brisbane and Adelaide. We currently have over 500 paid members and over 500 friends on our mailing lists.

AISA is an organisation for individuals rather than companies. Because of this we can maintain a truly unbiased view of security in Australia. Our membership ranges from company CEOs through to highly skilled technical security specialists and consequently the subjects discussed at our meetings are extremely varied. AISA's success as a group is largely based on the less tangible benefits of being a member of a body of professionals. Those who join in effect get instant access to a network of professionals who are all interested in contributing to the betterment of security in Australia. We hold social functions to encourage less formal networking and provide an excellent forum for a variety of ideas to take shape.

AISA is a constantly evolving and ambitious organisation, so we are always interested to speak with people who have thoughts on how we can improve and have more impact.
