The International Information Integrity Institute (i-4) was founded in 1986 by Donn Parker of the Stanford Research Institute International, it was the first knowledge and experience sharing forum for senior information security leaders. Acquired by KPMG in December 2009, i-4 is the leading forum for senior information security professionals.

i-4 strives to help its members increase their cyber security maturity through sharing throught leadership, collaboration and innovation by bringing together leading minds on the big issues, persistent and complex challenges, identifying new ways of combating risk and encouraging engagement by the wider business. i-4 content is directed by the membership, it covers a breadth of topics and is delivered in a variety of formats. The fundamental ethos of the i-4 concept is trust, collaboration, participation, contribution and the willingness to share not only the extensive experience of its community but also their valuable insight on different approaches and what works. Confidentiality is at the core of its work, encouraging members to share both good and bad experiences, as well as the solutions that they have discovered.

Forums
These three-day events take place three times a year, one each on the West and East coasts of the US, and a third in Europe. The emphasis is very much upon learning, sharing knowledge and solving real problems by interacting with other members, relevant guests and external specialist contributors.

Webinars
Members may not always have the time to attend events in person, so i-4’s regular webinars offer an ideal way to keep abreast of important security issues.

Member queries
If a member organisation is struggling to overcome a particular challenge, it can readily tap into the collective power of the i-4 membership. Responses to a query are analysed, collated and then published to the member raising the query and to the broader membership —all members thereby quickly benefiting from the collective knowledge and experience of the group.

Roundtable events
These events are hosted as requested, and have included monitoring end-point security. The outputs from these sessions will be shared with all attendees. They have been recognised by members as an opportunity for an open benchmarking exercise with no comparison within the market for the depth and level of sharing.

Threat and intelligence exchange
Monthly calls sharing the latest threats, mitigation and remediation are held, with members benefitting from this rare, trusted, cross sector intelligence sharing group. Dealing with tactical and operational issues related to cyber attacks and information security. Augmented by input from other closed intelligence sources and sharing groups.
