Our Story
History
The Channel Islands Information Security Forum (CIISF) was founded in Jersey in 2013. Starting with a small number of cyber security and data protection professionals, it soon grew into a vibrant community of over 300 members.
Today, the CIISF is the leading professional body for cyber and information security in the Channel Islands, supporting professionals across Jersey and Guernsey.
