Forrester Research Security Forum 2008, September 4-5, 2008 in Boston

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 16, 2008--Forrester Research, Inc. (Nasdaq: FORR):


WHAT:    Forrester Research, Inc. (Nasdaq: FORR) Security Forum 2008:
          Managing Security And Risk Amid Business And IT Change

         Security& Risk professionals walk the tightrope, brought
          about by constant organizational change. They must regularly
          balance the business demand for openness and integration
          against the concerns around data protection, availability,
          compliance, and oversight.

         Security Forum 2008 will demonstrate to senior-level IT and
          information security executives and practitioners how they
          can stimulate and promote business change -- and protect the
          business amid them -- by introducing a mix of governance
          practices, structured processes, and new technologies.

WHEN:    September 4-5, 2008
