Potential Problems with Information Security Risk Assessments

Author:
Taylor   Richard G.  


Journal:
Information Security Journal: A Global Perspective


Issue Date:
2015


Abstract(summary):

To protect the information assets of any organization, management must rely on accurate information security risk management. Management must access the risk to the organizations assets then develop information security strategies to reduce the risks. This assessment is difficult because of rapidly changing technology and new threats that are frequently being discovered. Research to address methods associated with information security risk management includes quantitative and qualitative methods. More comprehensive approaches combine both the quantitative and qualitative methods. This paper argues that current methods of information security assessment are flawed because management decisions regarding information security are often based on heuristics and optimistic perceptions. Dr. Richard Taylor is an assistant professor at Texas Southern University in Houston, Texas. He received his PhD in Management Information Systems from the University of Houston. His research interests include the social impact of information security, employee information security behavior, and managerial information security risk assessment.
