With the launch of the new site, CUInfoSecurity.com announced its partnership with CUES, the Credit Union Executive Society. CUES’ Linda Stemper-Johnson, SVP/COO explained why CUES is partnering with CUInfoSecurity.com, "The new website offers our members and other credit unions critical information they need to better secure their institutions. We partnered with CUInfoSecurity.com because we recognize the information afforded to our members at this site is especially useful and gives them the best tools to meet the information security requirements required by state and federal regulatory agencies." The partnership with CUES allows content from CUInfoSecurity.com to be sent to CUES members, including information on webinars, news and original interviews.

CUInfoSecurity.com features an editorial staff filled with experts in the Credit Union Information Security industry. By reporting on new regulation topics, industry trends, and concerns, CUInfoSecurity.com writers keep the credit union community up-to-date with industry best practices.

Credit union information security professionals are excited to know the issues they're wrestling with will find answers on CUInfosecurity.com.
