Dear Members, It has been an eventful and exciting two years. This is my last message before the new Board takes over from 01 April, 2013 for a term upto 31 March 2015. Upcoming Election A nomination committee headed by Ms.Huma Pasha (Immediate Past President) has been formed. Nominations for the Chapter Board have been sought from all of you for the new board term. We are looking forward to new and active members who can dedicate at least 10 hours a week to join this high level volunteer base. Active participation in helping in the Chapter’s activities is a rewarding/grooming and learning experience. Outgoing Board I have been very fortunate in having a very active and enthusiastic Board that has worked hard in the various Chapter Activities during the last two years. I would like not only to recognize the hard work put in by the outgoing board but also to thank each member for his dedicated work / professionalism and support during the last two years without which the regular activities could not have been performed. I would like to take this opportunity to recap some of the important accomplishments made by your Chapter in the following paragraphs. CISA Review Course Regularly conducted CISA review courses. The courses were conducted in the training Center of Ernst & Young Ford Rhods Sydat Hyder Chartered Accountants (which was provided to the chapter free of charge). This enabled us to not only improve our cash flows but also hire the most highly qualified teaching faculty to deliver the course. Later on, the last two courses were held in SKANS School of Accountancy. CISM & CGEIT Review Course For the first time your Chapter introduced the ISACA endorsed “Official CISM & CGEIT review courses” in the country. For this course (conducted at the same facility) we also hired highly qualified teaching faculty.

ISACA’s CRISC Certification Wins
Best Professional Certification Award
from SC Magazine
Rolling Meadows, IL, USA (27
February 2013)—ISACA, a global
association of more than 100,000 IT
security, assurance and governance
professionals, has won the Best
Professional Certification Program
Award from SC Magazine for the
Certified in Risk and Information
Systems Control (CRISC) credential.
The 2013 SC Awards were presented in
conjunction with the RSA Conference.
“SC Magazine is proud to recognize
ISACA as a leader in the information
security industry,” said Illena
Armstrong, vice president of editorial,
SC Magazine. “ISACA’s certification
program is a great model for the entire
information security industry.”
The 2013 SC Awards winners are
chosen by a panel of security
professionals from the private and
public sector, selected by SC
Magazine’s editorial team for their
information security leadership and
knowledge. The panel conducted in-
depth analysis and considered many
factors such as applicable research,
analyst reports and reviews to narrow
down the field of hundreds of
submissions to the top finalists.
Through this comprehensive analysis,
ISACA’s CRISC certification was
chosen as this year’s winner in the Best
Professional Certification Program
category.
The annual SC Awards, now in its 16th
year, showcase the leading solutions,
services, certifications & professionals.
SC Magazine distinguishes the
achievements of the security
professionals in the field, the

CRISC Won Best Certification
Award from SC Magazine
and service provider communities, and
the important work of government,
commercial and nonprofit
organizations. A list of winners is

testament to the big impact CRISC has
made in its first three years,” said Allan
Boardman, CISA, CISM, CGEIT,
CRISC, CA (SA), ACA, CISSP, chair
of ISACA’s Credentialing and Career
Management Board. “Employers are
looking for candidates with the CRISC
credential as proof of a strong
background in risk and control, and
employees are seeking the credential to
differentiate themselves and boost their
value to their organizations. All of
ISACA’s certifications are globally
recognized in many industries, and
independent studies consistently rate
ISACA’s designations among the
highest paying certifications that an IT
professional can earn. These factors all
contribute to the high demand for
CRISC certification.”
CRISC, established in 2010, has
already been earned by nearly 17,000
professionals. To earn the certification,
candidates must prove at least three
years of relevant experience and pass
the CRISC exam. The next exam will

2013.

UBL Pakistan implements
SAS Risk Management System
ISACA Karachi Newsletter Jan – Feb 2013 Edition Page 21 of 24
The Software and Services (SAS)
announced on Friday the signing of
a new strategic partnership with
United Bank Limited (UBL) of
Pakistan, as part of the bank's move
to implement a more effective and
improved enterprise risk
management system, said a press
release.
It said the alliance complements the
ongoing positive changes being
witnessed across Pakistan's banking
industry, like the introduction of
internet, mobile banking and ATMs.
UBL will utilize SAS Credit Risk
Management for Banking, Market
Risk & Operational Risk to
establish a high performance risk
framework that can help to adapt
best banking friendly practices.
The partnership also improves
banking operation to enhance
ratings, reduce finance costs and
create a faster way to generate
feedback from loan applications.
UBL bank is planning to equip with
SAS' cutting edge analytics,
sophisticated data management and
reporting capabilities that have been
deemed essential for daily banking
operations. The release said despite
from maintaining a compliance with
BASEL II regulations, UBL has
strived for key ways to achieve
business benefits within a
comprehensive risk management
strategy. Use of SAS can enhance
UBL's application scoring, customer
behavior analytics while also
effectively managing data for better
decision making.
Through the partnership, UBL will
be able to use SAS Credit Risk
Management for Banking, Market
Risk & Operational Risk to develop
custom scorecards and credit risk
models rapidly; investigate existing
portfolio and analyze new
applicants; accurately model capital
requirements; optimize UBL's mix
of customers in its portfolio and
maintain a complete audit trail.
The SAS spokesperson said our
partnership with UBL reflects our
drive to solve customer business
problems and our commitment to a
successful business future. UBL
requires a world-class solution that is
scalable to their expansion. SAS has
been proven a solution expertise in
more than 3,100 financial
institutions around the world-wide
and having such reputation of
working closely with customers,
creating requirements' understanding
and providing a highly effective
customized solutions.
The BASEL II framework is a tool
to create an international standard
for banking regulators to control
how much capital banks need to put
aside to safeguard against the types
of financial and operational risks.
Aiming to maintain a continuous
compliance with BASEL II
standards, UBL will also integrate
SAS for Enterprise Risk
Management into its risk
management procedures, which was
previously separated from the bank's
main business operations.
