In manycases security in universities is approached through the addition of tactical solutions. Often systems security isadded on as a final consideration instead of during early design stages. This approach can be incomprehensiveand inefficient. Although this approach can provide limited security, there is no guarantee that businessrequirements for security are incorporated and integrated effectively. This situation is partly due to securitymanagement in Australian universities being challenged by the complexity of both university culture and diverseoperating environments. In many circumstances the champion for security in universities tends to be relegatedto an officer in the IT department, hidden away from the business itself. Often this person with operationalresponsibility for security will have a detailed understanding of what should occur in security, but facesdifficulties in determining exactly how to go about achieving this on an enterprise level. In order to assist insecuring university IT systems and thereby improving e-business security, this research proposes a securitypractitioner´s management model. This model is aimed at facilitating the transition of security knowledge intoactual implementation across the enterprise, with an end goal of an improved culture of compliance towardssecurity practices in the university sector. This work is of significant value as it results from a study into specificsecurity management issues facing Australian universities. This study highlights that future research would bewell-placed to focus on benchmarking information security management within the university sector. 2006 artículo científico 0718-1876 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=96510209 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=965 Journal of Theoretical and Applied Electronic Commerce Research application/pdf Universidad de Talca Journal of Theoretical and Applied Electronic Commerce Research (Chile) Num.2 Vol.1 |
