The Relationship

The idea of the ‘wicked problem’ (Churchman, 1967), which advocates a pragmatic oscillation between problem and solution, rather than an attempt to reduce the problem to a series of steps to be followed sequentially, has been particularly helpful to us in conceptualising the relationships between people, organisations and information technology (IT). This conceptualisation was tested in the RAMESES project (Risk Assessment Model: Evaluation Strategy for Existing Systems), using grounded theory (Strauss and Corbin, 1997) as the basis for the methodology. The overall objective of RAMESES is ‘to provide a strategic model for the risk assessment of legacy software systems within SMEs (small-to-medium enterprises) considering business process change.’ Thus the relationship between the organisation, the way its staff carried out its processes, and their legacy IT systems was at the centre of our concerns. This chapter describes how the broad conceptualisation of the problem led to a detailed method to address it and the results available to date.

The use of Cloud Computing services is an attractive option to improve IT systems to achieve rapidly and elastically provisioned capability, and also to offer economic benefits. However, companies see security as a major concern in migrating to the Cloud. To bring clarity in Cloud security, this paper presents a systematic approach to manage the risks and analyzes the full range of risk in Cloud Computing solutions. Furthermore, as a study case, Google App Engine Platform is assessed based on ISO/IEC 27002 and OWASP Top 10 Risk List in this paper. Knowing the risks of Cloud solutions, companies can execute well-informed decisions on going into the Cloud and build their Cloud solutions in a secure way, relying on a robust e-trust relationship.

Vulnerability Management

The paper focuses on the attempt to show a way of automating IT vulnerability management across enterprise systems with the use of the Security Content Automation Protocol. SCAP offers a set of components which provide, among others, adjustable security checklists, standardised dictionaries of security vulnerabilities and vulnerability scoring methods that may prove valuable for organisations in terms of security analysis activities and quantitative risk assessment.

Risk Assessment And Management

Cyber security is commonly defined as the practice of protecting computers, networks, programs and data from unauthorized access or malicious attacks that are aimed for exploitation. Hence, cyber security is focused primary on malicious activities prevention and protection from occurring. Prevention and protection objectives have been usually achieved by applying traditional risk assessment and management procedures. Despite these efforts it has been shown that complete security of IT systems and data is almost impossible to achieve. Namely, by increasing number and type of different cyber threats the cyber incidents are becoming inevitable. Thus, even the strong cyber security is not enough anymore. Because of that organizations need to build the cyber resilience which mainly deals with system respond and recovery after disruptive event occurring. Cyber security combined with cyber resilience opens a new perspective towards better overall security of IT systems.
