Over the years, i-SIGMA has actively tackled government relations in response to specific threats or opportunities and proactively worked as advocates on behalf of the RIM and secure data destruction industries. While these measures have had some great successes, the association and the industry have now reached a point where more consistent activity and vigilance are required. As such, many of our association’s committees are taking charge to monitor ongoing opportunities where our association can make a stance and advocate for change.
i-SIGMA. and formerly NAID, and PRISM International have a successful history of working directly with the Federal Trade Commission, Securities and Exchange Commission, U.S. Financial Services Committee, Canadian House of Commons, Canadian Privacy Commissioner, and the British Standards Institution. i-SIGMA continues to foster these relationships.

Members are invited to get involved in the industry, even if it is not on the Government Relations Committee specifically. i-SIGMA provides members with the opportunity to serve on several different committees, which help to shape the direction of the association as well as the secure information governance industry.
As the association looks to maintain high standards within the industry, the i-SIGMA Code of Ethics & Member Resolution Council establishes a system for members to hold each other accountable. i-SIGMA will take action against any industry company engaging in harmful activities or producing materials with false information.
i-SIGMA also routinely conduct research to advance the interests of the industry and raise awareness among consumers and policymakers. One recent example would be the second-hand device electronic data research project i-SIGMA conducted, which was the largest in the world to date. Results from such studies have earned the association increased attention and credibility and serves to enhance awareness.
