Challenges for the comprehensive and integrated information security management

Abstract

Information security management needs to be considered from the perspective of individuals, organizations and the society as a whole. The current situation is not satisfactory with regard to the concepts or practices and is becoming more challenging in the future. Further research and development of the managerial methodologies and practices are necessary for the needs of the new business environments, SMEs and startups. This our research focuses on the comprehensive and multi-disciplinary framework that aims at providing challenges for the new assorted research initiatives and innovations, and insight and guidance for the implementers who integrate the information security solutions within the management of business systems and processes together with other specialized managerial viewpoints. At present, the studies and practical implementations are very scattered and separate from each other, and difficult to be reconciled. Also effective collaboration of the administrative authorities, business leaders and security specialists, and effective links between the managerial, human and technical viewpoints are emphasized.
