Mountain View, California, January 16, 2007 — Agiliance, a leading provider of IT Governance Risk and Compliance solutions, today announced that company founder and CEO Pravin Kothari will present a session entitled, "Top 5 Information Security Issues and Essential Practices to Address Them," at the upcoming ISACA Silicon Valley Chapter 2007 Winter Conference being held January 18-19, 2007 at Techmart's Network Meeting Center in Santa Clara, California.

Details on Mr. Kothari's speaking engagement are as follows:

What: "Top 5 Information Security Issues and Essential Practices to Address Them "

Who: Pravin Kothari, Founder & CEO, Agiliance

When: Thursday, January 18, 2007, 9:30 - 10:20 a.m. PT

Where: ISACA Silicon Valley Chapter 2007 Winter Conference, Techmart's Network Meeting Center, Santa Clara, CA

During the session, Mr. Kothari will discuss the top five issues faced by IT organizations of Fortune 2000 companies in security risk and compliance. The issues cover a wide spectrum ranging from compliance, risk and privacy to cyber crime and IP protection. Surprisingly, large and medium-sized enterprises face very similar challenges. Due to a lack of solutions to effectively address these issues, many IT executives today are forced to solve them with fragmented approaches that often yield expensive, inefficient and unreliable results. Mr. Kothari will describe essential practices that utilize a top-down policy and risk-based approach.
