Giving back to the community. It's a civic responsibility, But it's also a necessity to help raise cyber awareness.

"For information security professionals right now, there is a definite need to educate citizens of all walks of life, from our youth to parents, teachers, all the way up to our senior citizens," says Waddell who works with (ISC)2 to help raise community awareness. The goal: "to help them realize the importance of being safe on the internet, to learn safe internet practices and to be on the lookout for threats such as identity theft, cyber bullying and hacking."

In an interview about the importance of giving back to the community, he said:

Ways that information security pros can give back;
Benefits - and potential traps - for the individuals and organizations;
How to get started.
