“I would like to congratulate Christos, a distinguished professional and member of Intralot management team, for his re-election as Chair of ISACA”, said Antonios Kerastaris, Intralot Group CEO, and added ”Technology-driven innovation and trusted operations have always been at the top of our agenda and adopting international good practices on governance of technology, risk and security management are the means to achieve our goals. Intralot and the gaming sector at large will be greatly benefited by ISACA’s initiatives under Christos’ leadership.”
“In an era of digital transformation, ISACA supports professionals and organizations using technology as a business enabler and innovation vehicle. We do this through the deployment of technology governance and management frameworks, through the establishment of capability maturity models, by addressing impeding factors like cyberthreats, and through the creation of trust that assurance programs introduce,” said Christos Dimitriadis. “It is an honor, privilege and great responsibility to chair the board of directors for a second term. I am looking forward to working with our international community to increase ISACA’s contribution to the industries and professionals we serve.”
