Code of ethics
It is an essential part of a professional
association to regulate the behaviours of its members. AISA
requires that its members abide by this Code of Ethics ('Code').
Adherence to this code will help to produce a highly valued,
respected and mature Information Security profession. All members
of AISA must act in accordance with the Standards of Conduct set
out in this Code. This Code sets down minimum standards of conduct
and professional values and is not intended to cover all possible
situations in terms of specific behaviour. A member using this Code
to resolve ambiguous or contentious issues is expected to take into
account the spirit of the Code.

their knowledge and abilities.
