As 2022 comes to a close, so does the 50th anniversary year of the ISACA® Journal. This year, ISACA® Journal has looked back at how the Journal helped shape a new profession—electronic data processing auditing—and how the Journal has expanded over the past five decades to help members navigate new challenges and opportunities across the audit, governance, risk, cybersecurity, privacy and emerging technology domains.
Looking ahead, the Journal will play an important role in ISACA’s strategic vision to help ISACA’s professional community in its pursuit of digital trust by delivering thought leadership and practical use articles that support practitioners worldwide.
Digital trust is a relatively new term, but trust has long been an ISACA tenet and something ISACA members have worked to build throughout their enterprises since the association’s beginning in 1969 as the Electronic Data Processing Auditors Association (EDPAA). In the continual pursuit of digital trust, ISACA is dedicated to empowering ISACA members, enterprises and the IT world at large to advance a safer world built on digital trust. ISACA is proud to focus on creating an honest, ethical and transparent digital footprint by developing resources for the community, including the ISACA Journal.
Look for a new column in the ISACA Journal beginning with vol. 1, 2023 called “The Digital Trust Imperative.” This column will focus on the overarching goal of building a trustworthy digital ecosystem by delving into issues, events and components that affect digital trust at the enterprise and digital ecosystem levels. The ISACA Journal will continue to evolve alongside ISACA’s latest educational resources and assets for many years and anniversaries to come.
