ISACA has installed its 2017-2018 Board of Directors.
At its annual general meeting, Theresa Grafenstine, inspector general of the US House of Representatives (who served as vice chair the previous term), was elected to lead ISACA’s board as chair.
Over the past 25 years, Grafenstine has served in the inspector general community in both the legislative and executive branches of the U.S. federal government. As the inspector general, she is responsible for planning and leading independent, non-partisan audits, advisories and investigations of the financial and administrative functions of the House.
ISACA also named Robert Clyde, managing director of Clyde Consulting LLC, as vice-chair. Clyde is an NACD Board Leadership Fellow and serves as executive chair of the board of directors for White Cloud Security, and executive advisor to HyTrust and BullGuard Software. He previously served as the CEO of Adaptive Computing and the CTO of Symantec.

“I am grateful for the opportunity to help lead the organization that has provided me so much fulfillment,” said Grafenstine. “I am privileged to work with and on behalf of our global professional community to advance the positive potential of technology in the professions that we serve and society as a whole.”
