I also like the SEC ending as a play on "security" and "South Eastern
Conference".

OK, maybe not the south eastern conference part.

Chris brought up an important aspect. The word "engineer" has a legal
meaning in some areas. While hanging the sign out that says
"Professional Engineer" requires specific state licensing, I don't think
having the terms in an association name will get us in trouble. As long
as we don't claim to be P.E.s or claim to offer licensing to become one,
there should be no problems. 

I also have a slight preference for APOSEC as well.
