Information Security is the "insider's" magazine-the publication that CISOs,
security managers, directors and officers depend on for high-quality, practical
strategies and tactics for securing their organizations' data, networks,
applications and users. Each issue of Information Security includes cutting-edge
features focused on the "Four P's" of security: People, Policy, Process and
Product.
BAKEOFF: "Consumer Reports"-like articles involving benchmark
and performance testing, comparing how competing tools and technologies address
a security problem or scenario. Results guide readers in making intelligent
purchasing decisions to secure their enterprise.
TECHNOLOGY SHOWCASE: Security is notable for the pace of
technical innovation. Primarily an examination of a new or emerging product
space, these articles provide readers with sound, reasoned advice on what's new,
why it matters, and how it can help improve the management of enterprise
security systems.
EXPOSE: Big picture, investigative articles that offer new
insight or approaches to security problems, or examine status quo thinking under
a critical microscope, offering alternative ways of thinking.
POLICY & PROCESS: Practical methodologies for "solving a
security problem" through the implementation of security policies and
operational processes. Typically bylined by enterprise security professionals,
these articles provide step-by-step tips and tactics based on the author's
experience facing real-life enterprise security challenges.
PEOPLE: Information Security regularly profiles the leading
lights of infosecurity: the technical innovators, business leaders, and
government officials shaping the profession and the industry.
To ensure its editorial coverage reflects topical issues and emerging
technologies, Information Security doesn't schedule its entire 2004 editorial
calendar in advance. All feature articles are scheduled at least three months
prior to publication. To pitch an idea for a listed or new feature, click here.

Pitching Feature Ideas
Have an interesting angle on a
feature topic? Want to suggest a topic you don't see?
We're always interested in hearing new ideas or in gathering information about
products and services within applicable feature categories. Editorial pitches
should be submitted to Neil Roiter,
features editor, no later than 8 weeks prior to issue date (issue date is the 1st
day of the month listed as the publication date).
Keep in mind that we can't cover all the angles, so a pitch doesn't necessarily
translate into editorial coverage!
