Addressing Dynamic Issues in Information Security Management

• Ett ramverk för behandling av osäkerhet inom ledningssystem för informationssäkerhet presenteras. Ramverket baseras på teorier från corporate finance. En fallstudie visar hur ramverket kan appliceras.

• The paper addresses three main problems resulting from uncertainty in information security management: i)dynamically changing security requirements of an organization ii) externalities caused by a security system and iii)obsolete evaluation of security concerns. A framework based on options reasoning borrowed from corporate finance is proposed and adapted to evaluation of security architecture and decision-making for handling these issues at organizational level. The adaptation as methodology is demonstrated by a large case study validating its efficacy.
